Gun advocates will carry firearms around campus March 31 to start a conversation about concealed carry. Participants will assemble at 11 a.m. at Third Street and Cardinal Boulevard before walking the border of campus.

Participants will range from being unarmed to having a long gun slung over their shoulder. Event organizer Ilya Chernyauskiy said all weapons will be “holstered or carried in a safe manner.”

“We are not demonstrators, just gun owners looking to help educate folks,” Chernyauskiy, who will walk with an AR-15 rifle, said.
