Posting Materials at TMCC

Overview

Permission may be granted to post materials at a TMCC facility on a space-available basis to students, the public, educational institutions or public service agencies to announce activities and events. Also, if you are interested in scheduling an event at the College, including setting up a table to distribute information, please go to the scheduling website for information.

Before creating materials to be posted, or seeking permission to distribute information, please review Regulations Concerning Off-Campus Organizations.

The content of non-College postings or distribution of information does not reflect the opinion or endorsement of TMCC.
