It's private property for IDENTIFIED students of the university.

Having also gone to the libraries of UCLA as a teen, I know the signage that was posted around the campus.

If it's public property, then homeless people and all other non students have the right to be there. That is not the case.

IV. USE OF UNIVERSITY PROPERTIES

A. GENERAL PROVISIONS

1. The University derives its basic authority from the State of California Constitution, Article I, Section 9. All pertinent federal, state and local statutes are in force on University property and may be enforced by authorized campus or off-campus agencies.

2. All persons on University property are required to abide by University policies and campus regulations (copies available in the Center for Student Programming, 105 Kerckhoff Hall, and the Office of the Dean of Students, 1206 Murphy Hall). Violation of University policies or campus regulations may subject a person to legal penalties; if the person is a student, faculty member or staff member of the University, that person may also be subject to University discipline.

Individuals on University property or in attendance at an official University function assume an obligation to conduct themselves in a manner compatible with the University's responsibilities as an educational institution. This means that all persons are responsible for complying with applicable University and UCLA campus policies. This includes but is not limited to the following prohibitions: no person on University property or at official University functions may block entrances to or otherwise interfere with the free flow of traffic into and out of campus buildings; obstruct or disrupt campus activities; engage in the production of amplified or non-amplified sound that disrupts campus activities; camp or lodge, except in authorized facilities or locations; engage in physically abusive, threatening or intimidating conduct toward any person; exhibit disorderly or lewd conduct; participate in a disturbance of the peace or unlawful assembly; use, possess, sell or manufacture narcotic or illegal drugs; fail to comply with the directions of a University official acting in the performance of his or hers duties; or engage in the theft or misuse of University property or equipment.

3. All persons on University property are required, for reasonable cause, to identify themselves to, and comply with instructions of, authorized University officials acting in the performance of their duties. Authorized Representatives of a Registered Campus Organization may request identification of persons in the Organization's business meetings.

4. The campus prohibits non-University commercial activities on campus except by special arrangement with the Office of Business Enterprises.

5. Commercial products may be distributed on University properties or at official University functions only after prior authorization by the Office of Business & Finance or the Associated Students of UCLA, as appropriate. University Units, Student Government, Employee Organizations, Registered Campus Organizations and Support Groups may, however, distribute material incidental to their purpose at their own meetings and programs.

6. Commercial support of student programs and activities or Registered Campus Organizations is not considered a commercial activity under these guidelines and may therefore be permitted, provided that the primary purpose of such support is to underwrite a student program or activity, as opposed to the promotion or endorsement of a commercial product. The student organization may publicly acknowledge such support but shall not endorse any commercial products or services. Prior to any solicitation, all plans for commercial support involving Registered Organizations must receive prior approval from the Center for Student Programming. The Center for Student Programming will consult with the Department of University Relations to ensure consistency with the University's corporate fundraising efforts. Written policies and procedures pertaining to student commercial support activities may be obtained from the Center for Student Programming (105 Kerckhoff Hall).

7. Ingestible material (food, drink, etc.) may be distributed at events on campus only in accordance with the Guidelines for Food Safety at Temporary Events issued by the Office of Environment, Health, & Safety (EH&S).

a. A temporary food facility permit is required to sell or give away food or drink on campus. Campus Organizations and Student Governments are required to have prior approval from the Center for Student Programming before applying for a permit from EH&S.

b No permit is required if all aspects of food service are handled by a caterer. Caterers must have valid health permits.

c. No permit is required if the event is limited to group members and invited guests.

d. When ASUCLA managed facilities are used, prior approval is required from ASUCLA Catering.

8. Registration of Voters: University Properties may be used for the purpose of voter registration. Such activity is restricted to grounds open to the public generally (as defined in these regulations) or as provided for in Residence Hall Regulations.

9. The name, initials, insignia, seal or address of the University or any of its offices or units shall not be used except for official or authorized University purposes.

The UCLA name and logo may be used in conjunction with their organization's name, but only on products limited for use by their members. All other uses must have the specific approval of the ASUCLA.

Pursuant to campus policy, ASUCLA has the authority to control all commercial use of the UCLA name. If a Registered Campus Organization wishes to produce or purchase a product bearing the UCLA name or logo for general distribution, as opposed to limited on-campus use, the organization must obtain the product from a UCLA licensed manufacturer. Such products must carry both the UCLA logo and the name of the Registered Organization. Registered Organizations may not authorize any third party to produce merchandise bearing only the UCLA name or logo, or authorize or produce items that combine the UCLA name with any third party name or logo.

10. No sign, poster, paint, chalk or ink messages may be placed, affixed or applied to the walls, windows, floors or other surfaces of campus buildings or structures, streets, walkways, utility poles, construction fences, trees or shrubbery, except as provided for in Section IV, D. and Appendix I.
