Re: University of Houston - Releases Draft Campus Carry Policy
As the law is written now, any University can opt in. The only changes with campus carry is forcing public universities to set rules and giving private universities the option to opt out. I don't read SB11 to only allow full opt in or full opt out.

I failed to read where a student should be able to opt in to campus carry at a private university.TexasJohnBoy wrote:Students should be able to vet in if they so choose, then.casp625 wrote:Sounds better than completely opting out.nightmare69 wrote: Another local private university did something that is questionable. They decided to "opt out and authorize in". Meaning students cannot carry but staff can once they are vetted to do so.

If no 30.06, then no force of law. However, if it's merely mentioned in a policy, you cab still be suspended, expelled, fired, etc.
