(Still) no guns on campus

A recent state legislative change in regards to firearms on campuses now allows colleges to individually decide their policies. It should be noted that CCAD’s policy prohibiting weapons on campus has notchanged. Specifically: 

No student, employee, or other persons having business with the college shall knowingly possess, have under the person’s control, convey, or attempt to convey a deadly handgun or dangerous ordinance, including firearms, explosives, knives, BB guns, paintball guns, martial arts weapons, antiques, or other weapons of any kind, on CCAD property, including but not limited to CCAD-owned or -leased buildings and parking lots. 

You can see the full policy on page 42 here.

 

Your voice matters

Applications for Student Government are open now through Jan. 31. Here's the form to apply. And here's the form for faculty/staff recommendations.
