Tulane University Freedom to Demonstrate Campus Demonstration Protocol

Relevant Excerpt

Registering: Demonstrations may be registered during the fall and spring semesters, with the exception of university closures and the study and final examination periods. In order to provide space, safety, and support for demonstrations and demonstrators, events must be registered at least two business days prior to the proposed demonstration date via the Demonstration Registration Form on WaveSync. The earlier an event is registered, the more time we have to meet to support organizers and provide resources to prepare for and host a safe demonstration.
 

Definition and Types of Demonstrations: A demonstration is a coordinated act of individuals to initiate the explicit use of a space to draw attention to and express a point of view to others. Campus demonstrations include various activities including but not limited to: protests, art installations, vigils, on-campus marches, sit-ins or study-ins. (Definition and Types of Demonstrations was edited on November 14, 2024 for clarification of these protocols following events in the Howard Tilton Memorial Library.)

Locations: Demonstrations are approved on the uptown and downtown campuses, permitting the activities do not interfere with a current reservation. Demonstration locations on the uptown campus include the Academic Quad, Berger Family Lawn, McAlister Plaza, and Pocket Park. Downtown demonstration locations will be determined with the organizer on a case-by-case basis.
