Student Handbooks

4.9 : Expression of Student Beliefs Policy

Greenville University has historically chosen to grant its students the right to express their sincerely held beliefs. This has taken many forms including but not limited to petitions, sit-ins, open forum chapels, the Wittenberg board, free speech balls, sidewalk chalk, free speech boards, vigils, signs, banners, prayer, kneeling, gathering, and other actions that do not violate student handbook policies.
Students are encouraged to inform the President of GSGA and/or the Dean of Students if they organize such activities, to ensure that University leadership both understand the activity being taken and do not unintentionally disrupt the activity. University leadership reserves the right, in consultation with GSGA leadership, faculty leadership and activity organizers, to limit or prohibit any action, activity or posting that disrupts the normal functions of the University, create an unsafe environment for students or employees, or is contrary to the values of Greenville University.
