2.8.46 : Room Decorations and Carpeting

Carpet may be placed on the floor, however, do not nail it down, glue it, or otherwise permanently adhere it to the surface. Do not attach anything permanently to the walls or furniture such as paneling or contact paper. No decorative items can be placed on the ceiling.

State and local highway signs, pornographic materials, suggestive obscene pictures, alcoholic beverage and/or tobacco containers and posters are inappropriate room decorations and therefore prohibited. Signs taken from around campus without permission and placed in residence halls will be considered theft and may result in a $300 fine.

Possession or display of candles, oil lamps, incense, and other open flame objects are not permitted.

Signs and other decorations may be placed in your windows provided they are appropriate for public view in keeping with Greenville University Community standards and are in good taste.

Regardless of how a student chooses to enhance or decorate their room, he/she must restore it to its original condition before leaving campus. If in doubt, check with the RD.
