Northeastern University is a private institution that retains the right to determine the policies and protocols regarding access to university property and premises and the use of campus facilities. Northeastern may, at its sole discretion, deny members of the public access at any time for any reason not prohibited by law including, but not limited to, reasons related to university business, public safety, and/or to accommodate university or private events. Moreover, certain facilities, such as residence halls, are intended for use by residence hall residents only, and classrooms and laboratories are intended for use by members of the Northeastern academic community only. Access to these and other university facilities is permitted only in accordance with applicable policies and directives. Certain Northeastern campuses maintain additional restrictions and procedures for campus access, which may be reviewed at the University Policies website or on the campus's website. In all cases, the essential purposes of the university cannot be interrupted or disturbed by the access permitted to members of the public. The university reserves the right to rescind access privileges to any person who is violating or is alleged to have violated university policy, protocol, procedure, practice, or applicable laws or regulations, regardless of whether the person is affiliated with the university.
