SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- Syracuse University is changing its security policy for the Carrier Dome.
School officials announced Thursday a new clear bag policy and walk-through metal detectors will be in place starting with the football home opener on Sept. 8.
The clear bag policy limits the size and type of bags permitted inside the dome. Vinyl or PVC bags must be no bigger than 12 inches by 6 inches by 12 inches. One-gallon clear plastic freezer bags are another option.
Small clutch bags for personal items, diaper bags, and medically necessary items also will be allowed along with one of the clear bag options.
