History
The barangay was established on June 25, 1975 through Executive Order No. 24 issued by then Quezon City Mayor Norberto Amoranto. The mayoral order itself was pursuant to Presidential Decree 557 issued by then President Ferdinand Marcos on September 21, 1974 which mandates the conversion of barrios into barangays.[6]
Government
Barangay U.P. Campus is distinct from the University of the Philippines (UP) Diliman campus which is mainly inside the barangay. The barangay is a local government unit (LGU) and is headed by a barangay captain, while the UP Diliman Campus is an academic institution, headed by a chancellor.[7] It is also not to be confused with Barangay U.P. Village, located adjacent to it to the west.
Demographics
Barangay U.P. Campus, according to a census in 2012, has a squatter population of at least 15,500 households, each having an average of 4.5 members.[8]
Security
The UP Diliman Campus has its own independent police force, the UP Diliman Police, which also manages traffic within the Diliman campus. The local government of Barangay U.P. Campus is in charge of security for areas under its jurisdiction that are outside the university's campus grounds.[7]
