Update
Please note the following clarification:
The Douglas County Sheriff's Office is very grateful for the community support shown to the students and staff at Umpqua Community College. We understand that the community's need to provide a positive environment for the UCC family is valuable and a part of the healing process.
DCSO is working with UCC security to ensure that supporters will have the ability to demonstrate their caring for the staff and students as they return to campus. To that end, we encourage anyone who wishes to turn out to do so while keeping in mind the need to maintain a safe travel route for drivers and pedestrians alike.
Furthermore, we encourage all citizens to be sensitive to the students' needs as they return to classes.

On behalf of Umpqua Community College, Douglas County Sheriff's Office, Community Health Alliance and the Oregon State Police:
(Oct. 9, 2015) Local public safety and health officials have learned that members of the public plan to line the streets and roads leading to Umpqua Community College in support of the campus and its community in the days leading up to the start of classes on Monday, Oct 12.
The Douglas County Sheriff's Office, Oregon State Police and Community Health Alliance urge the public to stay away from city streets and state highways, especially Umpqua College Road.
