San Jacinto College is committed to fostering a learning environment where free inquiry and expression are encouraged. The College expects that persons engaging in organized expressive activities will demonstrate respect for the safety of persons and property, respect for those who may disagree with their message, and compliance with College policies and applicable local, state, and federal laws.
The College recognizes that freedom of speech is a fundamental right. Per Texas Education Code Section 51.9315, freedom of expression is of critical importance and requires the College to ensure free, robust, and uninhibited debate and deliberations by our students, College employees, and community members.
Notwithstanding these rights and freedoms, the College has adopted a Board procedure that imposes reasonable restrictions on the time, place, and manner of expressive activities on the College’s campuses and the District Administration building.
