Nonpublic and/or Limited Public Fora:       With regard to the entire remainder of the university, it is designated one of two types of fora…either a 1.) nonpublic or 2.) a limited public fora, which comprise all other buildings and places on campus, including residences, classrooms, offices, athletic and recreational and religious areas and structures as well as power and maintenance facilities.  The “nonpublic fora” are areas simply not compatible with any expressive activity at all other than what might be scheduled there at that time, and would include the private offices of the administrators, concert halls during events, the athletic or recreational facilities or college power plant or police station and the like.   The rule with regard to these nonpublic fora is simply that they are available only for the purpose intended – in a math class or a choir concert there is no room for unrelated expressive activity and restrictions on other activities are only reviewed for rationality.
