** (5) Recruitment rules during Orientation **

Please take note of the following recruitment restrictions during 
Orientation.  Basically, we can't recruit incoming students for 
student-run activities until the Activities Midway on 9/3.  If a student 
asks you about TCC, you're free to tell them all about what we do, but 
we can't go about handing out fliers or signing up students and such. 
If you personally know an incoming student, you're free to talk to them 
about TCC.

> The ASA Recruitment Rules have been finalized and approved by the
> current ASA Executive Board. Please read these rules carefully, follow
> them, and contact us at asa-exec at mit.edu with any questions or for any
> clarifications.

> The complete rules are posted at: http://web.mit.edu/asa/rules/recruitment-rules.html

> Some important points about restrictions prior to the Midway:
> - prohibited advertising methods include:
> * mass emails to those not previously known to the group
> * handing out flyers
> * actively collecting or soliciting information from new students
> * inviting freshmen to Facebook groups
> - any events with a recruitment component are prohibited
> - all Publicity Guideline violations (for example postering violations)
> will be fined at triple the normal rate and fines, not warnings, may be
> given for first offenses. Additional postering restrictions are also in
> place.
