Smoking, Open Carry, and Campus Carry Policies
Smoking and the use of all tobacco products is only allowed in designated smoking-permitted areas.
Pursuant to the law, open carry is not permitted by a license holder on the premises of an institution of higher education.
A law passed by the 84th Texas Legislature and effective August 1, 2016, changes the approach to carrying a concealed handgun on higher education campuses in Texas. The law is often referred to as “campus carry,” but it is officially Texas Senate Bill 11: Carrying of Handguns by License Holders on Certain Campuses. Texas statutes prohibits concealed carry on the premises where any UIL sanctioned competition is being held. Buildings where concealed carry is normally permitted but will be used for UIL competitions will have portable 30.06 signs placed at the entrances. For more information visit ASU’s website on campus carry Angelo State University and Campus Carry.
