Beginning July 1, 2017, HB 280 allows any individual 21 or older who possesses a Georgia concealed carry license may, as well as licenses issued by other states recognized in Georgia, carry a concealed weapon on a public college or university campus in Georgia. Concealed weapons are prohibited in university housing, athletic events, Greek housing, faculty offices, areas where K-12 education occurs, and disciplinary hearings. Any license holder who is in violation of the law shall receive a $25 fine and no jail time.
