Monday marked the first day of classes for Texas Tech University. It was also the first day of classes for Texas Tech with the statewide campus carry law in effect. The law, which which went into effect August 1 at public universities across Texas, allows licensed students, faculty, and staff to carry concealed handguns on campus. As of Monday afternoon, Texas Tech Police said that the new law posed no problems on campus. In fact Cpl. Amy Ivey with the Texas Tech Police explained that since the law took effect, there has not been a single incident involving campus carry or guns on campus.

Was there anyone shot? No. This news will be quietly dismissed by next year. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
