Student Activism on Campus

As a public university, the University of Michigan upholds the First Amendment of the US Constitution to protect a person’s speech and rights to religion, press, assembly, and petition. The university regulates the time, place, and manner of speech to ensure one group’s right to protest does not infringe on the rights of others, endanger our community, or disrupt the university's operations or planned events.

We encourage groups interested in planning an event or demonstration to contact the Campus Activism Response, Support, and Management team at (734) 764-7420 or by emailing [email protected] to develop a plan for upcoming events.
