* Under the Kansas Concealed Carry law effective July 1, 2017, concealed carry of handguns by those 21 and older will be allowed in public areas of all WSU buildings unless the public area has adequate security measures to ensure that no handguns are present. (Open carry of firearms will still be prohibited.) The President's Executive Team seeks faculty and staff assistance in determining priority areas for adequate security measures. If you believe the physical location where you work on campus is a public area that should be considered, go to http://www.wichita.edu/weaponssurvey to complete a short survey.
