Texas State is reacting to racist messages being posted on campus. The Vice President of Student Affairs released a statement last week reminding everyone of the policy for posting fliers and other literature. Bobcat Update's Victor Blanco has more on the story.
Although the University has policies regulating the posting and distribution of literature, the rules are often ignored. Fliers and bulletins are posted without regard to the guidelines.

The University had several controversial fliers make headlines in recent months. The most recent, titled Take Your Country Back, was posted last week and quickly taken down. Many students say they are willing to follow Texas State's policy if the material is offensive.

Senior Lecturer of Media Law Gilbert Martinez says students don't have a right to post wherever they choose but their ideas should be heard.

Individuals violating this policy are subject to Student Justice or Organization Conduct Procedures. To learn more, students can contact the Vice President for Student Affairs Office. For Bobcat Update, I'm Victor Blanco.
