Weapons on Campus

The Laws of the Regents and Colorado Revised Statute Title 18-12-105.5 make it unlawful to carry a concealed weapon and unlawful to possess a weapon while on the grounds of the University of Colorado.

In addition, University of Colorado at Boulder housing regulations do not permit the storing of weapons in residence halls or family housing units. As a convenience, the University Police Department provides weapons storage facilities for University-housed students with 24-hour access.

In addition to possible criminal penalties, any weapons violations on or off campus may result in either suspension from, or severance of the relationship with, the University. This policy applies within or upon the grounds, buildings, or any other facilities of the University.
