Introduction

Students, employees, and visitors of Michigan Technological University must register all weapons with the Public Safety Department as soon as possible when bringing such item(s) onto University property. The individual must carry proof of registration while in possession of a weapon on University property.

Registration in a Physical Education course in archery carries automatic registration of the bow and arrows for the purpose of this policy.
