WOSC Board adopts 'Weapons on Campus' resolution following Staff Senate opposition to law changes
Summary
The Board of Regents unanimously approved a Weapons on Campus resolution Feb. 17, 2026. Staff Senate earlier reported it 'voted to express its opposition to any changes to the current laws,' a point recorded to provide staff perspective prior to the board vote.
The Western Oklahoma State College Board of Regents adopted a Weapons on Campus resolution unanimously at its Feb. 17 meeting after the item was presented by President Dr. Chad Wiginton.
Staff Senate Chair Christina Stewart had reported earlier in the meeting that the Senate "voted to express its opposition to any changes to the current laws," a staff position the board heard as part of the Staff Senate report. President Wiginton presented the board resolution later in the agenda; Regent Darby moved to approve the resolution and Regent Cox seconded. The motion was adopted without dissent.
