				facilities are reserved primarily for educational use including, but not
				limited to, instruction, research, public assembly of college groups, student
				activities and other activities directly related to the educational mission of
				the college. The public character of the college does not grant to individuals
				an unlimited license to engage in activity which limits, interferes with, or
				otherwise disrupts the normal activities to which the college's facilities and
				grounds are dedicated. Accordingly, the college designates the common areas of
				the college as a limited public forum dedicated to the use of college groups,
				subject to the time, place, and manner limitations and restrictions set forth
				in this policy. Groups or individuals who are invited or permitted to engage in
				first amendment activities at the college do not represent an endorsement by
				Wenatchee Valley College or the board of trustees.
The purpose of the time, place, and manner regulations set
				forth in this policy is to establish procedures and reasonable controls for the
				use of college facilities. It is intended to balance the college's
				responsibility to fulfill its mission as a state educational institution of
				Washington with the interests of college groups seeking to assemble in common
				areas of the campus for expressive activity. The college recognizes that
				college groups should be accorded the opportunity to utilize the facilities and
				grounds of the college to the fullest extent possible. The college has
				designated certain sites as public use areas open to noncollege groups as set
				forth herein.
