[Vision2020] Firearms on campus

[Tom Hansen]

Phillip Nelsen stated:

"It is also interesting to note that there is a gun range located below
the Memorial Gym . . . "

I may not be a second year law student, as my degree is in Information
Systems. but look what I done found in (virtually) milliseconds . . .

The UI Administrative Procedure Manual. Section 35.35 (Public Use and
Liabilities), Paragraph H (Weapons and Explosives), sub-paragraph iii . .
.

"iii) Firearms may be brought onto campus for use in the Memorial Gym
firing range in accordance with firing range rules. Firearms must be
transported to the range unloaded, encased, with a trigger lock attached
or otherwise rendered inoperable."

Additional research (a term that should be quite intimate to a law
student) further disclosed (after a 3-minute, 14-second phone call to the
administrative office of UI Army ROTC) that this "gun range" is used by
the Army ROTC unit for training and qualification.
