Smoking is prohibited in all campus buildings and in/on all College property, including College vehicles and residence halls. At the discretion of a College in the District, designated smoking space can be provided; however, it must be placed in such a way to eliminate environmental smoke hazards to non-smokers. Smoking is permitted in personal automobiles when parked on campus.

Organizers and attendees at public events, such as conferences, meetings, public lectures, social events, and cultural events using GCCD facilities, are required to abide by the College’s Smoke-Free Policy. Organizers of such events are responsible for communicating this policy to attendees and for enforcing this policy.

For the purposes of this policy, smoking is defined as burning any type of tobacco product.

In compliance with city ordinances, it is unlawful for any person to bear, concealed or otherwise, any rifle, pistol, or revolver. It is also unlawful to bear on or about one’s person any concealed slingshot, bludgeon, or knife with a blade over four (4) inches in length. The carrying in vehicles of any weapons listed above is also prohibited on campus, as is the discharge of any firearm, gun, or other weapon. This excludes military personnel on official duty and law enforcement officers. Weapons (including bows and crossbows) and reloading materials may not be stored in student housing. Students violating this policy will be evicted. Residence Hall students may have access to weapons storage through the Student Life & Housing.
