We offer the following guidance about public expressions of free speech and advocacy, consistent with UCOP and UCSB policies, and SB108:

  • Identify yourself when asked by designated University Officials who present their credentials (e.g., UCSB ID) and are implementing campus policies or state regulations.
  • Do not conceal your identity with the aim of intimidating any person or group, or to evade recognition or identification with the intent to violate University or UC policies or laws.
  • If you carry a poster, sign, banner, flag or display by hand, do not attach it to University property (exterior, and interior except in approved areas).
  • Do not bring unauthorized items such as temporary installations and/or physical structures on campus property during demonstrations or related activities (except as approved).
  • Please familiarize yourself with the policies on the sizes, materials and restrictions of posters, signs, banners, flags and other similar displays and follow them.

Please note, these reminders are not inclusive of all applicable Time, Place and Manner (TPM) policies.
