I am one of those 22yo people who would be carrying, funny thing is that I know a couple of other chlers in our mechanical engineering department who would be also. I guess our class would be the one with 3 out of 25 students carrying. A real statistical outlier. But I suppose it is because I go to SMU, where the students have money to be paying for the chl class and fancy guns. Actually one more person I know is getting theirs soon, she is picking out her gun in a few weeks. I would bet that our school has a higher than average percentage of licensees. Too bad private universitys may be able to opt out.</random thoughts>

I suspect that the statistical variance might have more to do with your more likely to be interacting with engineering students than say Philosophy or Russian Literature majors. Engineering students are "different" than the est of of the student body.

Unlike the UT students who have money but spend it on partying. Then they whine because the HB 750 hearing was during Spring Break, when they were busy getting drunk and having sex with strangers, so they couldn't come to the hearing.
I believe the basic political division in this country is not between liberals and conservatives but between those who believe that they should have a say in the personal lives of strangers and those who do not.

I still wish they would de-criminalize it at ALL schools, but if they have to ... allow so-called "private" schools to make "policies" .... but not laws against.... like no 30.06 signs would be enforceable ... like on city property

Like at Virginia, where you could get expelled, but no crime committed ... like at my middle/Junior High in the 1960s you got in trouble for having a shirt tail untucked or hair to long or no socks worn, but you weren't going to get a criminal record for it.

I'd be happy with that.
