A man who was one time associated with UR was observed attempting to download a movie onto his computer in the ITS Center in Rush Rhees Library, according to UR Security Investigator Dan Lafferty.
The movie was a copyrighted motion picture, and therefore, the download was illegal.
He departed from the library before officials could arrive, but he was found and positively identified by library staff.
The man was found to be an ex-graduate student, but his affiliation with the University ended years ago.
Security gave the man an interim ban from the area and he was advised not to return to ITS premises.

Domino’s Pizza employees gain access to student dorms
Two Domino’s Pizza employees were reported to be passing out fliers in Lovejoy Hall, according to Lafferty.
They were then observed leaving Lovejoy and gaining entrance to Tiernan Hall using the electronic card reader. The two employees had no affiliation with the University.
At first the employees maintained that they had followed students into the building. However, they soon admitted that they had obtained a student ID card from a student who wanted to have his pizza delivered to his door.
The two were issued interim bans from University property and warned against further such activity.
