The Indiana University Board of Trustees voted 6-3 in support of a new expressive activity policy which goes into effect today. The policy bans camping, limits hours of expressive activity from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and requires that structures be approved by the university at least 10 days in advance. Violation of the policy could result in the removal of tents or even suspension from campus. Today, you will hear a WFHB News special on the Dunn Meadow encampment protests and the university’s response to those protests.
