When an individual or organization offers to show movies, TV programs, or other content that was rented, borrowed, purchased, or obtained through an online streaming service, usually only the physical copy is obtained and not the underlying copyright rights to the movie. You may watch the movie yourself, with your family, or with a small group of friends, but you do not have the right to show the movie to the public. In most cases, doing so requires a separate public performance license from the copyright owner. To show a film or video on campus (except when showing it to the students enrolled in a specific educational class with an instructor present) there is an expectation to obtain performance rights for the work. The coordinator for campus activities and student diversity is available to assist you with the purchase of public performance rights.
