    The fuck is “legitimate business?” You need a boarding pass and id to get in an airport, I can go sit on a bench and look at squirrels on campus all day and nobody will bug me.

      I’m just trying to tell you that it’s not “public” in that you can just access it whenever you want. Students and friends/family of that student are attending an event that they’ve been invited or allowed entry to. They are allowed to be there until the school, government, or whatever governing entity says so.

      You’re campus is called a public forum, in that it’s accessible to the public and is an allowed gathering area for non-students as well as students. This is different than a nonpublic forum.

      You can’t just walk into the stadium to go use the field, or hang out in the stands, or do whatever you want. You need permission or have some sort of authorization allowing you to be there, like an ID, a pass, a ticket, or whatever the government entity that is running that stadium is permitting otherwise it’s considered trespassing (much like private property), and they can ask you to leave at any point.

        Any articles showing them in the stadium? All I can find is that they were “nearby,” meaning not inside.

        Nevermind I found the disconnect. This was in the stadium during commencement to preempt any protests during it.
