Penn Bans Protest Encampments From Its Campus
Briefly

To ensure the safety of the Penn community and to protect the health and property of individuals, encampments and overnight demonstrations are not permitted in any university location, regardless of space (indoor or outdoor), Penn's new rules for protests say, adding, Unauthorized overnight activities will be considered trespassing and addressed.
The rules also forbid protests that prevent speakers on campus from expressing their views or other members of the community from hearing or seeing the speaker. They bar students from projecting slogans onto buildings or writing slogans on them in semi-permanent or permanent chalk or marker.
The administration said that the rules aim to enable free expression while allowing Penn to deliver its core missions of teaching, research, service and patient care without disruption.
