The photography policy is set forth by the individual speaker, in this case Colin Powell. Depending on the speaker, there are a variety of different reasons for a "no photography" rule, including copyright issues, security, and distractions while the lecture is in progress. </p> <p>Anthony</p> <p>- Anthony Adornato</p> comment000546@http://blogs.colgate.edu/ Mon, 23 Mar 2009 08:40:33 -0500 http://blogs.colgate.edu/2009/03/tickets-for-powell-lecture-now.html#comments <p>I hope that Gen. Powell will stick around for an autograph session after the lecture. I'm not happy about this "camera policy" of the school whereas you can't even bring in a simple point-n-shoot camera to grab a photo or 2! So what if someone wants to take a picture. If you want to make it "no flash photography" out of respect for Gen. Powell...FINE. But to say "the use of cameras, cell-phone cameras....is prohibited" is just plain wrong in my view, and I've seen more than my share of high profile guests or celebrities! They're not God! So...at least allow people to shake hands with the man afterward okay!?</p> <p>- Dave Kelly</p> comment000545@http://blogs.colgate.edu/ Sun, 22 Mar 2009 17:55:37 -0500
