I honestly don't see a problem with chalking. At my alma mater, the sororities were really the only ones to chalk except during Homecoming and Student Government election time when everyone advertised their candidates on the sidewalks. A lot of the designs and pictures were very creative and people enjoyed seeing the messages.
I don't really see the point of having to get permission to chalk. The stuff washes off so easily that it wouldn't take anyone long to get rid of any inappropriate messages. Plus, the groups who chalk regularly (at least on my campus) never write anything hateful anyway. Those idiots who do want to spread hate through chalked messages certainly don't care about getting a permit for it -- they'll just do it in the dead of night like they always do. Having to get permits is, to me, sort of preaching to the choir in this case.
