School building church rentsl

[NWIs&wShield]

We are part of a small church group which rents a building of a private Christian university for church meeting and worship.
We are the only people in the building on the Sundays we are there, and there are no school functions on that day.
Does the building stilll fall in the bounds of being a school, thereby restrictive of having a concealed handgun on the premises?

It's only k-12 that is a GFZ, IIRC.

THIS. If its not a K-12 school, you dont have to worry about the STATE GFZ laws. You may still have to contend with the private policies of the university though.

But getting reprimanded/trespassed from uni property is still better than a pair of matching bracelets.

When in doubt, concealed means CONCEALED.

Yeah carry away without legal worries. Id keep it concealed because if they are anti gun you probably won't be able to have services anymore if you tell them

I appreciate the replies.....but I'm wondering: Is there documentation in the Indiana codes which define "school" as K-12?

Yes, it is a legally defined term. You're gtg. If you don't trust, or you want to verify then you should do a search here & on google (for the relevant IC).

I think you can start with Indiana Code 35-47. I think that is where its at.

Sounds like it doesn't apply here but the GFZ also applies to licensed daycare as well. And there is a difference between registered daycare and licensed daycare.
