Requires institution of higher education to adopt policy on use of campus facilities and grounds for camping.

This bill requires all New Jersey colleges and universities to create a written policy governing overnight camping on campus grounds or facilities. The policy must mandate that anyone or any group seeking to camp (including using tents, sleeping bags, makeshift shelters, or vehicles like RVs) must obtain prior approval from the institution. The bill defines "camping" as any overnight use of such items for any purpose and takes effect immediately. It directly affects campus administrators and students/groups who might seek to camp on school property.
