To comply with the law, if federal immigration enforcement is confirmed on campus, UC San Diego will send an “SB 98 notification” via email. The notification will include details about the time and location of the activity and will not include any personally identifiable information.
“Immigration enforcement” is defined as “any and all efforts to investigate, enforce, or assist in the investigation or enforcement of any federal civil immigration law, and also includes any and all efforts to investigate, enforce, or assist in the investigation or enforcement of any federal criminal immigration law that penalizes a person’s presence in, entry, or reentry to, or employment in, the United States.”
It is important to note that federal immigration agencies can and do enter campus for non-enforcement activities, which can include recruitment and activities related to normal nonimmigrant visa status verifications. The SB 98 notification will be issued only when the university confirms immigration enforcement activities.
The below procedures and information relate only to immigration enforcement activities.
