flyering
If requesting permission to flyer in the residence halls, your flyer must be approved by the RHA Coordinating Board. While it is not required that you present at our Coordinating Board Meetings (on Tuesdays @ 6:00 PM at Loma Pelona Center), it is suggested that you attend so the Coordinating Board can ask questions and provide feedback. The Administrative Vice President will notify you of when your flyer will be reviewed and the Board’s decision.
*Please Note: Meetings will not take place on a national or academic holiday, or Study and Finals weeks. Requests will not be heard at Coordinating Board meetings if you do not send a representative to present on your organization’s behalf with any relevant information, or if you arrive more than 15 minutes late.
If you are approved for funding, they will need to be brought into an RHA office prior to being distributed to the halls. All flyers must be stamped with an “RHA Approved” logo prior to being hung in the halls. Funding requests should be open and advertised to all on campus undergraduate residents.
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please e-mail our Administrative Vice President at rha.ucsb.avp@gmail.com or our Vice President of Finance at ucsbfinancevp@gmail.com.
