The views expressed during Reunions are those of the individual presenters only. With respect to Princeton’s free expression values, members of the Princeton University community and visitors have broad freedom to express themselves in a manner consistent with the University’s policies. At the same time, University policies prohibit conduct that, among other things, disrupts University operations and activities. To be clear, any individuals who disrupt a Princeton event are in violation of University policy, subject to disciplinary action, and will be asked to leave the premises immediately. If they do not leave immediately, they will be considered a Defiant Trespasser under New Jersey criminal law and subject to arrest.
