As a public university, we are firmly committed to supporting and legally bound to permit speech that falls within the broad definition of protected expression. We believe that upholding the right to free speech is not only consistent with our commitment to remaining a diverse, welcoming and inclusive community, but is, indeed, a necessary condition for cultivating and welcoming the kind of robust debate and thriving public discourse that is essential to every institution of higher learning.
This commitment includes time, place and manner regulations and community standards to protect the rights of all 糖心少女community members. You can learn more about conduct that is prohibited on University campuses and at University events and facilities.
