Policy

Section: Facilities

Firearms And Weapons On College Property

Possession of firearms or other weapons on College property is prohibited, unless it falls within an exception defined in College Procedures ES5040, ES4630, and HR3341. This prohibition includes, but is not limited to, those weapons which otherwise may be carried pursuant to a valid permit issued in accordance with Iowa weapons law. Unauthorized firearms and other weapons (including simulated weapons) will not be tolerated on campus. The President shall formulate procedures to assure prompt, certain and severe consequences for the unauthorized introduction of firearms and other weapons (including simulated weapons) onto campus by students, employees, or others.

Threat Assessment

The President shall develop procedures to assure timely assessment of firearms/weapons-related and other threats to individual and campus security on a case-by-case basis and to develop and direct appropriate short-term and long-term institutional interventions designed to reduce or eliminate such risks of danger.

Crisis Management

The President shall develop procedures to manage, contain and reduce the adverse consequences of actual College crises emerging out of threats or other dangerous circumstances and to promptly restore normal College functions and activities in the wake of such crises.
