The same types of items that may not be hung from the ceiling of a dorm room may not be hung in these areas either. Aside from the combustibility of such items, in the event of a fire, they can fall and entangle persons attempting to exit though the area where they are hung. Obviously, not all posters, signs and other objects attached to the walls meet this criteria. Ordinary crepe paper is highly flammable, so be sure to check for the Flame Retardant variety. B. No live greenery, i.e., Christmas trees, wreaths, etc., made from live evergreens may be used.
Evergreens are highly flammable once they begin to dry out.
Any such item that is not planted in soil and actively growing is susceptible to this. Because proper treatment is much harder to do that it sounds, evergreens are prohibited on campus. At no time are fire alarms, smoke detectors, fire extinguishers, light switches, electrical outlets, room lights, etc., to be covered by decorations. See section 3 above. D. Decorations in hallways, on walls and on doors are not allowed to cover the entire surface.
