In order to maintain the credibility and effectiveness of the list, SBA applies the standards of content, form, and timing detailed below, in addition to exercising its discretion as to whether any given message is appropriate.

Messages must be pertinent to the student body as a whole, not just certain classes or groups. Only one message per topic is allowed.
