CEDARVILLE, Ohio – Trustees at a small university in Ohio have approved allowing faculty and staff with permits to carry concealed weapons on campus.
Cedarville University will become the first college in Ohio to allow concealed weapons on campus.

A new Ohio law allows individual boards of trustees to decide whether to allow concealed weapons on campus.
