The use of aerial drones has temporarily been suspended at the University of Michigan.Drones are not permitted on or above campus property, while a policy regulating their use is developed by the university.
Last year, an unauthorized drone landed on the helipad at the U of M Health System. Officials say it could have interfered with a Survival Flight being dispatched in case of an emergency.
The ban does not include drones that are used as part of university research.
