ICE Protocol 

It is important that you are aware of your rights regardless of your immigration status.

Engagement with External Law Enforcement Protocol 

If a non-CSU law enforcement officer makes inquiries regarding any student, staff, faculty, patient, or visitor on campus or requests access to any campus building, immediately refer the officer to CSU Police and call CSU-Police directly (773-995-2111) to inform them of the presence of non-CSU law enforcement. 

This protocol is relevant for interactions with any federal immigration officer who makes inquiries about the immigration or citizenship status of any student, staff, faculty, patient, or visitor on campus. 

If any documents are presented, please do not accept them. Direct the officers to CSU Police. Again, call CSU-Police directly (773-995-2111) to inform them of the situation. 

If bringing in university counsel is warranted, CSU Police will make that referral. You may also call university counsel directly (773-995-2462), but we encourage you to route all of these situations through CSUPD. 

Email or Other Digital or Paper-Based Inquiries Protocol 

Should you receive a request for information from an external party that is outside of your normal interactions via email, other digital platforms, or through hard-copy documents, please forward that email/information to legal@csu.edu and refrain from responding yourself.
