ACCEPTANCE OF MODIFIED POLICIES ON THE USE OF THE CENTRAL GROUNDS

  • The following resolution was adopted:
  • On October 6, 1986, the Board accepted the policies adopted by the President after he received a report from a Committee on the Use of the Central Grounds.
  • Subsequently the President modified these policies, following which the U. S. District Court for the Western District of Virginia and the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the policies and ruled in favor of the University in the "shanties" case. The President now recommends the adoption of the following resolution:
  • RESOLVED that the policies, as amended, adopted by the President on the use of the Central Grounds be and they are hereby accepted, and that these policies which are shown in Attachment A, shall supersede all others.
