Firearms, starter pistols, theater props, air rifles, BB guns, paintball guns, other weapons such as knives, swords, archery equipment, and crossbows, and live ammunition are not permitted in Colby residence halls or anywhere on Colby property at any time. Shotguns and high-caliber rifles to be used specifically for target or skeet shooting or for hunting (only with a valid Maine hunting license) during Maine’s hunting season must be registered and stored under Security’s supervision in Roberts Building. Possession of firearms, except as above, is a serious offense, and suspension will be considered for any infractions. Hunting on Colby property is forbidden, as the entire campus is designated a state game preserve. It is also illegal to discharge a firearm anywhere within the city limits of Waterville.
