Altered fire code regulations ease on posters
By Will Levine and Margaret Bonner | August 30, 2005This year, students living in on-Grounds housing must comply with an altered set of fire code regulations. Like last year, no more than 10 percent of the wall or ceiling may be covered; however, students are allowed more leeway with uncovered posters or pictures, Assistant Director of Operations Burt Joseph said. "We will allow four posters per room without being framed or laminated, each no larger than 900 square inches, about the size of a 24 by 36 poster," he said. Previously, students had been asked to frame or laminate all posters before putting them on the wall, but the policy has been eased for the 2005-2006 school year. "We are trying to work to relax it as much as we can," Joseph said.
