MIT Policies & Procedures: 12.5.5 Bulletin Boards, Postering, and Display Spaces

Relevant Excerpt

Institute Display Spaces may only be used by DLCs, recognized student groups, and other established Institute groups, such as academic and administrative units, unions, and employee resource groups.

...

The use of posters on Institute Display Spaces shall only be used to communicate information about Institute or MIT-recognized group events, activities, programs, or services, or for educational, research, professional, or volunteer opportunities that are relevant to the MIT community. These spaces may not be used for the purpose of selling personal items, promoting businesses or third-party goods and services, or advertising non-MIT events, activities, or programs that are targeted toward a broad, general audience.

All posters must clearly and conspicuously identify and include contact information for the group responsible for the posters.

...

Posters on the MIT campus, regardless of location, may not be used to engage in harassment, discrimination, retaliation, invasion of personal privacy, defamation, threats or violence, targeting of groups or individuals, infringing the intellectual property rights of others, or violations of law or other MIT policies ("prohibited uses").

...

Concerns about the content/viewpoint of a poster/display on any campus location will be forwarded to a rapid response team appointed jointly by the Provost, Chancellor, Vice President for Human Resources, and the Chair of the Faculty. Removal of posters/displays based solely on content/viewpoint is expected to be rare and such determinations will be made at the sole discretion of the rapid response team.
