GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR PHOTOGRAPHY AND FILM FOOTAGE

The University of Delaware campus is private property, but in general, still photography and video are allowed in outside areas. Any photography or video inside University buildings — including classrooms, laboratories, residence halls, administration and office buildings — must be approved through the Office of Public Relations. Written requests must be faxed or sent on letterhead outlining the purpose of the photo shoot and how photo or video will be used.
