Solicitation applies to commercial, charitable, religious and political endeavors. Authorization to sell or solicit for the sale of merchandise in the Unistructure or Housing Units will not ordinarily be given. Any party granted permission to sell or solicit for the sale of merchandise must agree to abide by appropriate federal, state, and local regulations.
Commercial endeavors are divided into three categories:
- student ventures
- student organization ventures
- non-student ventures
Student Ventures
Student Ventures are defined as projects conducted by students for the purpose of making a profit.
- Students may sell or solicit for the sale of merchandise on campus only with the written authorization of the Dean of Student Life.
- Individual students will not ordinarily be given the appropriate written approval to sell or solicit for the sale of merchandise on campus, unless it can be shown that such sale constitutes a service to the University community not otherwise available.
Student Organization Ventures
Student Organization Ventures are projects conducted by recognized student organizations for the purpose of making a profit.
- Student organizations may sell or solicit for the sale of merchandise on campus only with the written approval of the Director of Student Activities.
- Student organizations will be given the appropriate written approval to sell or solicit for the sale of merchandise for the purpose of fund-raising when it can be shown that the primary vendors and beneficiaries of the sale will be members of the Bryant community.
Non-student Ventures
Non-student Ventures include all efforts to sell or solicit for the sale of merchandise or other by University employees, University affiliates, or commercial vendors.
- University employees may sell or solicit for the sale of merchandise on campus only as directly related to the purpose and description of their employment.
- University affiliates may sell or solicit for the sale of merchandise on campus only as provided for in their written terms of affiliation with Bryant University.
- Commercial vendors may sell or solicit for the sale of merchandise on campus only with the written authorization of an office of Bryant University acting within the scope of its authority.
Charitable, Religious, and Political Solicitations
Charitable, religious, and political solicitations on University property are not allowed unless permitted by the Dean of Students. Permission for such solicitations will be granted only to the extent that such activities are consistent in time, place, and manner with the mission and activities of Bryant University.
