Kent State grad famous for posing with AR-10 is returning for campus rally

Published



Kent State University graduate Kaitlin Bennett is holding an open carry rally at the university in the fall after gaining Internet popularity for graduation photos in which she posed with an AR-10.

The university prohibits students, staff, and faculty from carrying “deadly weapons” on its campus, but since Bennett has graduated, she is permitted to carry a weapon there, according to cleveland.com. The rally will take place on Sept. 29 and will involve “a great lineup of speakers,” according to a tweet Bennett posted on Friday, along with a link to the rally’s GoFundMe page which has raised $370 of its $3,000 goal so far.
