Communication of Proposed Name or Dedication

1. Names and dedications shall not be put into use prior to obtaining the appropriate approvals in accordance with this policy and applicable KBOR policies.

3. Proposals to name or dedicate a University Facility shall not be communicated to a proposed honoree prior to gaining the University President's approval in accordance with this policy.

Criteria and Restrictions for Names and Dedications

1.

Removal of Name or Dedication

1. The University shall have the right to remove any name or dedication bestowed upon any University Facility, in accordance with applicable KBOR policies.
2. Where a University Facility is named for or dedicated to any individual, partnership, corporation, or other entity that has come into disrepute in the University or in the general community so as to reflect negatively or adversely upon the University, such disrepute may serve as a basis for removal.
