604 BOARD OF TRUSTEES League, but is not a student, faculty member, or staff member of the Chicago Circle campus and alleges that the Spartacus Youth League has chapters at various institutions of higher learning, including Chicago Circle campus, at which it is "a duly registered student political organization." The complaint sets forth certain published regulations at the Chicago Circle campus concerning the distribution of literature, with or without a charge, by student organizations and individual students, faculty members, or staff members. It is alleged that Plaintiff John was prohibited by the defendants and their agents from selling or distributing literature on the Chicago Circle campus "solely on the ground that he is not a student, faculty member, or staff member of Circle Campus and solely upon the above stated regulations." The complaint then alleges that the regulations in question are unconstitutional on their face and seeks a judgment (a) declaring the regulations unconstitutional and void; (b) enjoining preliminarily and permanently the enforcement of said regulations or otherwise prohibiting Plaintiff John or other persons who are not students, faculty, or staff from distributing literature, with or without a charge, on the Chicago Circle campus; and (c) an award of plaintiff's costs and attorneys' fees and such further relief as may be deemed proper. The university counsel has requested that he be authorized to take such steps as are necessary or appropriate, including the employment of special counsel, to protect the interests of the University in the matter and to provide representation for those University trustees and employees who request the same and represent that actions, if any, taken by them in connection with the matters alleged in the complaint were taken in their respective capacities as University trustees or employees.
