If Approached by an Officer with an Immigration Warrant on Campus

Do not engage directly or attempt to interpret or comply with the warrant. Instead, follow these steps:

1. Refer the officer to the appropriate contact:

   • Graduate students and TAs: Direct the officer to your department or division’s Student Affairs Office.

   • Faculty and staff: Refer the officer to your supervisor or Chief Administrative Officer (CAO).

2. The designated contact (Student Affairs, supervisor, or CAO) should:

   • Immediately email a copy of the warrant to: WarrantQuestions@ucsd.edu

   • An attorney will review the warrant and respond with guidance.

Following this protocol ensures that legal documents are reviewed properly and that the rights of all campus community members are protected.
