In the first place, I think CHL ought to be campus wide, no restriction whatsoever. In the second place, I would recoil in horror at giving individual instructors that kind of discretion, which makes a pig's breakfast out of the intent of the statute. For this reason alone, I wouldn't be surprised if some enterprising, creative nitwit at some college doesn't think this would be a good idea.
:iagree:

With the stupidity you hear coming out of campuses these days, i don't think anything would surprise me.

Brings up a very good point. Several different profs may use the same room and while one may allow CC, another using the same room on a different day may not. The "reasonable" part would be to restrict CC in areas like labs, etc. that are essentially single use.

Re: Texas colleges could land in court over designated 'gun-free' classes

What I see is colleges coming up with enough GFZ's that it becomes too much of a hassle to carry. First class is a class that allows. Second class is one that doesn't, Third is a class does. Too short amount of time between classes to go back to your car, apartment, etc to disarm so you just don't bother to carry. Landing in court or not, it will be many years before anything changes.
