Use of University Space

Relevant Excerpt

The University of North Carolina Asheville (UNC Asheville) strives to create the open exchange of ideas and places a high value on constitutionally protected freedom of speech, assembly, and petition.

…

Use of any University space, including assemblies and petitioning, may not materially interfere with, inhibit, or substantially disrupt University operations or activities.

…

Persons shall not engage in unlawful speech or conduct not protected by the First Amendment, such as true threats or harassment.

…

Unscheduled space uses may occur by University users or Invited users, provided that the activity aligns with the requirements of sections IV and V, the use is not classified as a Complex Event, and the University space (i) does not require a permit or prior approval and (ii) is not otherwise scheduled or prioritized for use.
Although not required, space users are encouraged to contact a designated space coordinator and provide notification about the activity. Advance notice enables the University to help ensure that the activity does not conflict with a scheduled or prioritized use, takes place in a constructive manner, the event is effective, and to assist organizers in seeing that the activity does not disrupt the University’s operations or other programs.
