Dalton State Affiliated Groups
Dalton State student organizations, departments, or other affiliates of the college are permitted to engage in solicitation activities such as fundraisers on campus. Use of space for the selling of goods and/or services that is in close proximity to and in direct competition with exclusive university vendors such as the University Bookstore, Dining Services, Housing, Vending, or any other entities that have an exclusive contract with Dalton State is prohibited.
To host a fundraiser on campus, groups must make a reservation to use their desired space in accordance with section XI.

At the conclusion of the Fundraiser, an organization officer will need to submit a Fundraiser Completion Form for institutional auditing purposes.
Each event must follow the policies, rules, and regulations of the college and the laws of the State of Georgia.
