How do extensions of our campuses located on high school campuses become affected?<br /><br />Last session, the Joe Driver bill, in one of the hearings as it was working its way through the legislative process, was going to require us to provide secure storage (gun safe) in our residence halls. While the State did not post a fiscal note to the bill, since it was not costing the GR budget any $$ directly, it was going to be a cost to the local institutions. David Simpson has emailed me that he is going to try to secure a committee substitute for the bill to require the carrier to be responsible for checking the weapon. However, the residence hall issue still needs to be resolved for higher education, regarding the ways the handgun is stored.<br /><br />Our own campus Chief of Police, as well as the Chiefs of Police at most institutions of higher education, voiced their concerns not only during the last session, but also again this past month.<br /><br />Personally, I support an individual’s right to carry a concealed handgun. I believe it is ill advised in our environment. If it is so universally safe, why did both the Driver bill and the Simpson bill contain the exemption for athletic events? Why not allow them at these events also? Is it a product of athletics or the size of the crowd? If the size of the crowd, what about commencement exercises at the football field with 5,000 attendees?<br /><br />I welcome the diversity of opinion on this issue and your comments as well.<br /><br />Bill Holda<br /><br />William M.

All though, SOME will invariably cite the recent case of the shooter on UT's campus as to why we DON'T need CC on Campus, since the police were so "effective".
