All the college campuses I've worked construction or maintenance on (as an outside contractor) have had specific rules about this.

They were all around or exactly 2 seconds of looking at someone without reason (if you intend to interact with them in some work capacity you're allowed to look at people)

Think about how rules get created. Think about how the rule had to be morphed over time until it became not allowed for outside workers to perceive students for longer than 2 seconds.

I've worked in trades for a long time now and I was completely unsurprised the first time i did an orientation at a campus and was actually glad they were so adamant about it because of people who worked for the same company as I did

Moderate fear of walking past a construction site :(

If it's any consolation at all the first priority of every general contractor (the company in charge of the site as a whole) is being able to get more jobs in the future. A bad reputation is the scariest thing imaginable. If you are in the horrid position of being harassed or worse by someone on a marked construction site you will absolutely be able to cause an absolute shit storm for the company if you make a complaint.

I doubt that is any consolation but the culture, at least right now, is to keep all the toxicity behind the walls/fences so nobody gets in trouble
