Given the current protest activity on campuses across the country, we wish to reiterate our campus policies and remind the community of their rights and responsibilities, as well as possible consequences for policy violations. UC San Diego fully supports the right to peaceful protest and free expression; however, we continue to hold students, student organizations, faculty, staff and non-affiliates fully accountable under our codes of conduct and the law for any and all violations.
Policy Violations
Freedom of expression does not authorize individuals to violate university policy or the law. Those who break the law or violate university policy – including threats of violence or acts of intimidation – should anticipate disciplinary and/or legal action.
Applicable university policies include:
Principles of Community
UC San Diego is committed to fostering a climate of cooperation, empathy and professionalism in which all members of our community feel valued and respected. This commitment is underscored by our Principles of Community, which reinforce our shared responsibility to cultivate a respectful, inclusive campus, in which all students, staff and faculty can fully participate.
Thank you for your continued cooperation and commitment to foster an inclusive and respectful campus environment for all.
