290 ROANE STATE COMMUNITY COLLEGE
SUBSIDIARY USE OF THE COLLEGE CAMPUS—As a general rule, visitors
who desire to visit the college campus in a casual and informal manner are welcome.
Non-members of the college community who have not been authorized in writing to
use the college facilities and who repeatedly visit or spend a large portion of their time
on the college campus interfere with the normal activities of the college and will be
asked to leave.
The buildings, facilities, and campus of the college are reserved and dedicated to
educational use, and no use may be made of the facility which is inconsistent with that
primary use.
The college, acting on its own or at the request of a registered and recognized campus
organization, may invite speakers, performers, or entertainers to appear before audiences
on the college campus. No non-member of the college community may speak,
perform, or entertain before an audience on the college campus without such an invitation
and the written approval of the college of the time, place, and manner of such appearance.
Rental of college facilities by non-college personnel may be arranged
through the Office of Continuing Education or the Dean of the Oak Ridge Campus.
No person or persons shall use any sound amplifying equipment on the college
campus other than that requested by the college officials in carrying on the normal
activities of the college.
No person shall take advantage of the large concentration and semi-captive audience
of students and faculty to organize on the campus any assembly, moratorium,
strike, sit-in, parade, demonstration or similar activity which substantially interferes
with the normal activities of the college or the rights of others.
No person who threatens to substantially interfere with the normal activities of
the college or to substantially interfere with or deny the lawful rights of others to use
the facilities of the college shall enter or remain upon the college campus.
Children should not be brought to class or left unattended in any area of the
college. Out of consideration to fellow students, faculty and staff, and for safety reasons,
please secure appropriate babysitting services off-campus.
Non-members of the campus community are required while on the campus to observe
and comply with the rules and regulations adopted by the college or the
Tennessee Board of Regents. Non-members of the campus community are also required
while on the campus to identify themselves upon the request of either campus
officers or campus security or other law enforcement officials in the performance of
their duty.
WEAPONS ON CAMPUS—Felony State Law prescribes a maximum penalty of six
(6) years imprisonment and a fine not to exceed three thousand dollars ($3,000) for carrying
a weapon on school property. “A ...state or federal government entity or agent
thereof is authorized to prohibit possession of weapons by any person at meetings conducted
by or on the premises owned, operated, managed or under control of such ...
government entity. (TCA, 39-17-130-9)”
