(1) Conduct that intentionally and substantially obstructs or disrupts teaching or freedom of movement or other lawful activities on the university campus;

(2) Physical abuse of any person or conduct that unlawfully threatens imminent bodily harm or endangers the health or safety of any person on the university campus;

(3) Malicious damage to or malicious misuse of university property, or the property of any person where such property is located on the university campus;

(4) Refusal to comply with any lawful order to leave the university campus or any portion thereof;

(5) Possession or use of firearms, explosives, dangerous chemicals or other dangerous weapons or instrumentalities on the university campus. This prohibition does not apply to possession of such items for authorized university purposes; possession of such items by authorized law enforcement officers; individuals who have obtained prior written approval from the university chief of police, president, or designee; or lawful possession of firearms by persons other than students in privately owned vehicles while on any university campus.

(6) Unlawful possession, use, distribution, or manufacture of alcohol or controlled substances on the university campus or during university-sponsored activities;

(7) Intentionally inciting others to engage immediately in any of the conduct prohibited herein, which incitement leads directly to such conduct. (Inciting is advocacy that prepares the group addressed for imminent action and steels it to the conduct prohibited herein.)
