The newspaper says student housing contracts at CU-Boulder and CU-Colorado Springs will be amended to accommodate students over age 21 who have concealed-carry permits.

The policy change follows a Colorado Supreme Court decision in March upholding an appeals-court ruling that struck down CU’s gun ban.

“I believe we have taken reasonable steps to adhere to the ruling of the Colorado Supreme Court, while balancing that with the priority of providing a safe environment for our students, faculty and staff,” says CU-Boulder Chancellor Philip DiStefano in a statement on the university’s website.

In Boulder, students who want to carry their gun must live in the family-housing units downtown, while those in Colorado Springs will have to live in upperclassmen dorms. In all other dorms, guns will be banned, The Post reports, quoting university officials.

“Residence hall students may still store weapons at the University of Colorado Police Department on campus, which is open and available for drop-off and pickup of weapons, 24 hours a day, seven days a week,” CU-Boulder says.

Those who live off the main campus must store their weapon in a safe within their home when not carrying it, KUSA-TV reports.

Students with gun permits will also be barred from bringing guns to ticketed athletic and cultural events on campus.
