Re: UT Austin - Question About Prospective Freshman Visit

Regarding concealed carry on campus, my understanding is that they are still responsible for posting signs at all 'off-limit' areas.

It is also funny to me that their guidelines state this:
We ask that concealed license holders remember that while they may be at ease carrying a handgun, many people on our campus are not familiar with handguns and are uncomfortable in their presence.

But their reasoning for selective admission of minorities over whites is this:
Instead, the majority opinion written by Justice Anthony M. Kennedy reiterated previous high-court rulings that diversity justifies some intrusion on the Constitution’s guarantee of equal protection, which generally forbids the government from making decisions based on race.

So UT encourages diversity of color but not diversity of thought. Good to know... :/
