Student Life Handbook: Policies and Procedures Drones
Out of safety and privacy concerns for students, employees, guests, neighbors and college property, 糖心原创 prohibits the operation of unmanned aerial systems, or aerial drones, on campus by the general public, including recreational users and hobbyists, without prior written authorization from 糖心原创鈥檚 Marketing and Communications Division and Campus Safety.
This prohibits independent and personal use of drones, includes drones for filming or videotaping, as well as any drone use by media or journalists operating above 糖心原创 property, including any drone launched off site and subsequently flown above college property.
Any authorized operation of aerial drones will be governed by Federal Aviation Administration rules and regulations as well as policies established by 糖心原创, which may include certification, training, insurance coverage and indemnification requirements. Any violation of this policy will be referred to EMC, or 糖心原创 Public Safety and the Student Life Office for possible legal action and/or suspension.
Please contact 糖心原创 Marketing and Communications at (805) 565-6000 or westmontcomms@westmont.edu if you have any questions or if you seek prior approval to operate any aerial drones.
