7.0 Firearms and Dangerous Possessions

 

Presbyterian College strives to create a safe environment in which students, faculty and staff may study, work and fellowship with one another.  Violations of the firearms and dangerous possessions policy may result in the assessment of a $100.00 fine, immediate confiscation of device without prior notice to the student(s), suspension, or expulsion, depending on the circumstances.

 

7.1         Possessing or using dangerous possessions on campus grounds,

              in campus buildings, and at College-sponsored events.  This

              includes, but is not limited to, the following:  BB guns, pellet guns (even

              those with soft pellets), rifles, handguns, slingshots, crossbows, ammunitions,

              hand-loading equipment, swords, knives over 6” in length, machetes,

              hatchets, and other potentially lethal weapons, devices or accessories

              on campus grounds or in campus buildings. 

 

Exceptions to this policy include athletic and ROTC equipment; however, students must make arrangements to store these items at a location approved by the Vice President for Student Life. 

Note:  The Knapsack may be amended as the College deems appropriate.
