| Description | This regulation brings Christopher Newport University (CNU or the University) into alignment with other public institutions of higher learning in the Commonwealth by restricting the possession of weapons on campus. Before this regulation, CNU was the only public institution of higher learning without such a regulation. The regulation prohibits the “[p]ossession or carrying of any weapon by any person is prohibited in or on all buildings and grounds owned, leased, operated or controlled by Christopher Newport University,” including in vehicles. The regulation exempts sworn police officers in the performance of their duties, visitors who are licensed to carry concealed firearms who may store their weapon in a personal vehicle, and persons given express permission by the CNU Police Department. Violators will be asked to leave University property and may be arrested for trespass if the refuse to do so. |
