LCC is a weapons-free campus
Lane Community College (LCC) is committed to preventing workplace violence and to maintaining a safe work and learning environment. LCC strictly prohibits any person, including students, employees, visitors, contractors and vendors, from being in possession of, or giving the appearance of being in possession of, any firearm, dangerous or deadly weapon, or destructive device while on College business, or at any other time while in or on College owned or controlled buildings, offices, premises, sites or vehicles, or at activities under the jurisdiction or sponsorship of the College. College property also includes that portion of any other building occupied by the College on a permanent or temporary basis. This policy applies to all firearms and does not include an affirmative defense described in ORS 166.370 (3)(g), concerning persons licensed to carry a concealed handgun under ORS 166.291 and ORS 166.292. On-duty law enforcement officers licensed with the Oregon Department of Public Safety Standards and Training (DPSST) or equivalent state or federal authority authorized to license the possession of firearms by law enforcement officers may possess firearms while on college property and acting within the scope of their employment. The LCC President is authorized to make exceptions on the showing of good cause or necessity with immediate notification to the board. Any individual found in violation of this policy is subject to removal and exclusion from campus, college disciplinary action (if an employee or student), and/or arrest in accordance with state and federal laws.
