FAIRMONT, W.VA – The implementation of Campus Carrie Law approved by the state MPs last year is getting closer at the Fairmont State University Campus.

Fairmont State Campus Carrie Committee, a panel of 14 members, is developing recommendations for implementation. The final is effective on 1 July. This will allow residents to carry a pistol on college complexes with a valid hidden carry license and be effective in buildings.
Fairmont State Chief of Staff Brian Selmeski said the committee included two students, employees, faculty and other campus stakes that would make recommendations to President Michael Davis, who would make a final recommendation to the Board of Governors.
Selmeski said on Tuesday’s “Talk of the Town” on Tuesday, “The committee will take to the President, and the President will search for additional input and will give his final recommendations to the Fairmont State University Board of Governors.”
In addition to the meetings, the committee has broadcast surveys to obtain as much inputs as possible and will tailor recommendations for those reactions as much as possible as a July date.
“Their mandate is to ensure compliance about transparency, about the campus culture, and to ensure that we bring everyone together in the process,” Selmeski said.
Selmesky insisted that the committee is working in an opinion-free area, working with an charge with an charge to inform the campus community which will eventually form a policy. There is no attempt to complete one group on another.
“We are not trying to convince anyone that it is a good thing whether the campus carry or a bad thing,” Selmeski said. “We are trying to ensure compliance, safety, safety and transparency.”
Law determines 12 exceptions where institutions can hold elections to ban hidden carry. There is an organized event in a stadium or akhara involved in exceptions, which has a capacity of more than 1,000 spectators, in a premises in a childcare feature, campus, patient-care areas and a complex in a campus on a complex, on a-12 school-proposed events, leaving common areas.
According to Selmeski, institutions cannot expect any help to cover the costs related to implementation from state MPs this year.
“How do we choose to use exceptions that will determine the things such as safety measures are employed, what storage facilities are provided, and some of the other answers that will generate costs,” Selmeski said.
Selmesky said that the goal of this many-step process is to feel the current campus and prevent people from feeling that they are at the security gate of the airport as a result of recommendations.
“You will see most of these areas identified with signage, and you will be identified with less signage and a sufficient safety measure,” Selmeski said.
