Re: Concealed Carry on College Campuses
Good point. Harrassment is harrassment, no matter what you are being harrassed over.

Re: Concealed Carry on College Campuses
You may want to be careful on that phrasing. A college employee is not necessarily a faculty member. A college employee can also be a professional/technical staff member, or a classified employee (a "grunt" to those with prior military experience).Douva wrote:If the bill is written as we hope and anticipate it will be, it will do to things:
1. It will remove colleges and institutions of postsecondary education from the list of places where concealed carry is prohibited by state law.
2. It will dictate that tax-funded state colleges be required to honor state-issued licenses (similar to the current law that preempts state and municipal offices from prohibiting concealed carry).
Therefore, concealed carry would not only be legal on college campuses; it would also be illegal for administrators at public colleges to take administrative or disciplinary action against licensed students or faculty who choose to carry concealed handguns on campus.
In my case, I am one of the "grunts". If the language specifically says "faculty", then all of us "grunts" would be excluded.

Re: Concealed Carry on College Campuses
Hi, Scott. I'm glad you are here.
Out of curiosity, how does this bill affect campus employees? As a college employee, I could be fired for just having my sidearm locked in my vehicle on a campus parking lot. Is this a separate issue to be covered by different legislation?
