Washington Administrative Code › Title 132I - Highline College › Chapter 132I-140 - Use of facilities › Section 132I-140-010 - Purpose

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
The trustees of Highline College believe that educational and
				community service opportunities are extended to the community when the
				college's buildings, grounds, and facilities are made available for use by the
				students, faculty, administration, staff, and the community. This use shall not
				interfere with regular college activities and shall be in accordance with the
				public interest and welfare, all applicable state and federal laws, and shall
				be in the best interest(s) of the college as interpreted by the administration
				of Highline College and/or the board of trustees.
College 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 that
				limits, interferes with, or otherwise disrupts the normal activities for and to
				which the college's facilities and grounds are dedicated. Accordingly, the
				college is a designated public forum opened for the limited purposes recited
				herein and further subject to the time, place, and manner limitations and
				restrictions set forth in this policy.
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 for both college and noncollege groups. 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 and noncollege groups who are interested in using the campus for the
				purposes of constitutionally protected speech, assembly or expression. 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 intends to open its facilities to noncollege groups to a
				lesser extent as set forth herein.
Intended or actual use in conflict with these policies or
				construed to be in any way detrimental to the college's best interests and/or
				original intent for that facility are strictly prohibited.
Nothing in this chapter is intended to alter the students'
				right of assembly as set forth in WAC
				132I-120-315.
