Banner Space Request Form

Banners to be hung must be dropped off at the administrative office no later than 4:00 pm on Friday. Banners will be hung by the Campus Center staff on Sunday and removed on Saturday evenings. Given the limited space, even those who meet the deadline may not have the banner hung on desired dates and reservations are made on a first come first serve basis.

BANNERS IN THE CAMPUS CENTER
Official Smith College Offices, Departments and Organizations are allowed to advertise Smith College events by hanging banners in the Campus Center.
