The president of the University of California has announced that the system would enforce bans on encampments as well as the use of masks to “conceal identity” in guidance that comes as schools across the US are planning for protests in support of Gaza similar to those that roiled campuses across the country.

Michael V Drake, the president of the 10-campus university system, said in a statement on Monday that the UC was taking steps to “ensure a safe, inclusive campus climate that fosters a free exchange of ideas”.

    Not that kind of mask. From the article, it was a response to masked counter-protestors violently attacking the protestors.

      Depends on how the rules are written. Otherwise you’ll have a bad faith security guard charging people he doesn’t like.

        Depends on what the cop enforcing it decides to do. Even if the rules stipulate that there are health exceptions, police can and probably will still harass people and charge innocent people if they feel like it.
