A message from Associate Vice Chancellor Steve Lurie

Bruins,

The UC Regents will hold a three-day meeting at the Luskin Conference Center from Tuesday, Nov. 18, through Thursday, Nov. 20, 2025. We are excited to welcome University leaders as they convene to do their important work. Traditionally, these meetings have been a focal point for individuals and groups who wish to express their concerns, goals, and vision for the University of California.

For those who wish to communicate with the Regents, there will be public comment periods available to address the Board directly. For details, please click here.

There will also be areas outside the Luskin Conference Center that are designated for public expression activities. Signs will be posted in the area to delineate these zones. If you plan to engage in First Amendment activity during the Regents meeting, please take a moment to review our time, place, and manner policies and related laws. They can be accessed at tpm.ucla.edu.

To ensure a safe, successful meeting, the Office of Campus and Community Safety will partner with the other UC campuses and the California Highway Patrol to increase available police resources during the three-day event. Our community members will see officers in police vehicles, on bicycles, and on foot.

We remain committed to implementing UCLA's tiered response to all events and will utilize uniformed police officers only when absolutely necessary.

Please join me in welcoming the Regents to UCLA, and feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns.

Best regards,

Steve Lurie
Associate Vice Chancellor
Office of Campus & Community Safety
