When it comes to Christmas time, festive decor plays an integral part in the celebrations for so many around the globe.
However, what do you do when you’re banned from displaying traditional decor on your front door by your own university?
Well, it’s a moment of utter devastation and heartbreak during the most wonderful time of the year for students hailing from Emory University.
And that’s because they’ve reportedly been banned that placing Christmas decor is a violation of the educational institution’s policy.
A recent report by the Campus Reform fraternity shocked so many when members of the school’s Alpha Tau Omega were quick to reveal how they were ordered to remove their Christmas wreaths hanging on the door of their residence. Moreover, they were also informed how it violated the school’s policy and that an incident report would soon be generated for the matter.
“Since this happens to be the second violation of the policy, you must submit an incident report to the Student Conduct Office,” it went on to state.
Surprisingly, Emory University’S policy says that the exterior holiday decor should not be installed in the first place and now that it is, it must be removed by students immediately.
“Those who violate the school’s policy will face disciplinary actions,” the statement threatened.
Meanwhile, the fraternity’s head says that they were certainly not made aware of this policy and the first thing that led to this frenzy in the first place was related to students displaying adorable inflatable polar bears for Thanksgiving.
In the students’ defense, many are stating how they were not made aware of the new policy and were still following the old policy as a recent Google Search states that decor related to Christmas was allowed.
