Content-based restrictions are prohibited, but reasonable time, place and manner regulations will be applied. Spontaneous activities may take place in Public Areas without pre-scheduling or reservations.

B. Limited Areas

A Limited Area is University Property available to the public but due to business operations, safety concerns, or other important University interests, is not open for assembling, marching, demonstrating or protesting. Activities in these areas may require scheduling and reservations with the University, and are available on a limited basis, subject to campus regulations that are narrowly tailored to address the University's legitimate business interests.

Scheduling and Registration Procedures

The university has established formal procedures for events and activities to ensure effective campus coordination and to provide individuals and groups with a means by which to reserve facilities, spaces, equipment, and other resources and support services. These scheduling protocols apply to all campus events and activities, including but not limited to speeches, musical and artistic performances and exhibitions, public assemblies and events, marches and parades, non-commercial solicitation and commercial activities.

Unless otherwise noted below, all campus events and activities for the Hayward campus are scheduled through the Facility Rentals office; and for the Concord center through the Concord Center Events Coordinator. The University Union (UU) is scheduled through UU Reservations.

Any events or activities held in 91¶ÌÊÓƵ’s residential communities are subject to the policies of 91¶ÌÊÓƵ University Housing and Residence Life Program. Questions about these policies may be directed to the Office of University Housing and Residence Life.

Commercial filming and still photography on campus, subject to approval by the Commercial Services office and University Communications. Requests must be submitted in writing to commercialservices@csueastbay.edu.

All commercial film and photography requires a permit and certification of insurance. Commercial film and photography projects will be charged a permitting and location management fee, to be determined by the Commercial Services office depending on the size and scope of the project.

During certain campus wide special events (e.g., Commencement, Preview Day, Orientation), priority will be given to event-related activities in the scheduling of campus facilities, grounds and resources.

In carrying out the scheduling function, the university will retain a position of strict neutrality regarding the views groups or individuals may wish to express. The institutional control of campus facilities shall not be used as a device for censorship. The university will not preclude groups or individuals from expressing their views because of disagreement with the views to be presented.

To address public safety issues (routes of march, necessary public safety staffing, etc.), groups contemplating holding public assemblies, marches or demonstrations are strongly encouraged to notify the University Police in advance of the event, preferably at least 72 hours in advance. In addition, to avoid conflicts with other scheduled University events, and to reserve other necessary support services and ensure event success, organizers of public assemblies, marches or demonstrations are also strongly encouraged to notify the University Facility Rentals Office.

Where facilities or equipment are required, formal scheduling protocols must be followed. Procedures for booking equipment for campus events may be found at .

The University President has delegated oversight of campus demonstrations to the Vice President of Student Affairs (SA) and the Chief of University Police, to ensure protection of freedom of expression and constitutional rights, participant safety, and, if needed, to implement dispersal procedures only when participants have exceeded the limits of their constitutional rights or exceeded the general limitations of this policy (See General Limitations Section).

Please visit the University Facility Rentals website for additional information.

Activities and Uses on University Property Requiring Written Permission

The following activities and uses are prohibited unless prior written permission from the appropriate University official is obtained, or as otherwise provided in each Campus Addendum.

1. Posters, Signs, Banners, and Chalking: The University Operational Posting Guidelines inform how the university’s Time, Place and Manner policy should be used with regard to posting banners, posters, flyers, brochures, external signs, indoor/outdoor digital monitor/sign content, etc., leading to a balance between event, program and activity publicity, and maintaining the appearance and brand identity of the campus environment. These guidelines govern temporary signs and posting for both internal and external campus environments.

   Permanent fixtures, such as wayfinding signage and official university building signage, as well as long-term temporary signs in exterior locations (e.g. signs for construction projects) are not governed by these guidelines and must be reviewed and approved by Facilities Development and Operations. Operational messages, such as information provided by the university administration, are also not governed by these guidelines.

   The posting of signs on building surfaces, windows, glass doors, benches, utility poles, sculptures, garbage receptacles, railings, trees, traffic control signs and sidewalks is prohibited.

   Placement of written/printed materials on vehicle windshields is prohibited. Violators are subject to all charges incurred for the clean-up of such littered materials on campus grounds.

   These requirements apply to postings at the Hayward campus and Concord Center as well as the Oakland Center.

2. No Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) (also known as a drone) may be flown from, on or around University Property without the express written approval of the University Risk Management. Please refer to the Unmanned Aircraft System Policy for additional guidance.

3. Use of University Property for commercial purposes is prohibited unless prior written permission has been obtained from the University. Please refer to the Commercial Services Policy for additional guidance.

4. University Flagpoles are reserved for official University use only. Flags flown on outdoor, permanently installed flagpoles located on University Property serve as a means of expression of the University’s official sentiments as determined by the University President or the Chancellor, as applicable. They are not a forum for free expression or expressive conduct by members of the University community or the public.
