Can I collect data from campus buildings, pedestrians, or random people on campus?

Yes, with an IRB approval and with certain restrictions.

• Collection of research data is not allowed inside of building hallways, or near classrooms doors.
• Collection is not allowed inside of classroom spaces unless prior arrangements have been made with a specific faculty member for a specified class period.
• No data collection may be conducted near building doorways.
• Data collection in food service areas must be unobtrusive. You may not approach individuals more than once and may not block traffic patterns.
• Data collection in the library, the RAC or in and outside of Russell Union must be registered with the facility office in advance.

Any data collection effort should not impede traffic on the sidewalk or Pedestrium. Each subject may only be approached once.
