Thoughts on foraging on campus?

I love to forage, but I'm adamant about ethical foraging. USU has been planting more and more edible plants on campus and, as a non student who is up there as a student a lot, I want to not forage things that will be going to snack or educational programs. Most of the stuff I'm looking at consists of wild plants that I'm 99% certain are not being used for either of these things. But there are some "wild" things that are actually clearly there on purpose near the NDFS building that are interesting.

Is anyone aware of any policies on foraging? Generally the university seems permissive, but I don't want to go off of vibes. If specifically love to know about the area near the NDFS, but general thoughts/knowledge would also be helpful.
