AUSTIN, Texas - Concealed handguns would be mostly barred from University of Texas dormitories but not from classrooms under recommendations presented to the school president.
UT President Greg Fenves will review the recommendations, offered Thursday, before a final vote of approval by university regents.
Texas state lawmakers are requiring public universities to allow concealed handgun license holders to bring weapons on campus starting Aug. 1, 2016.
The panel that developed the recommendations says its members don't want guns in classrooms, but a ban would violate Texas law.
Submitters note: It would seem to me that a ban on guns in dormitories would also violate Texas law. |

| I'm with the submitter on this. The entire dormitory system cannot be a specific sensitive high security area. |

| As civil rulers, not having their duty to the people before them, may attempt to tyrannize, and as the military forces which must be occasionally raised to defend our country, might pervert their power to the injury of their fellow citizens, the people are confirmed by the article in their right to keep and bear their private arms. — Tench Coxe in `Remarks on the First Part of the Amendments to the Federal Constitution' under the Pseudonym "A Pennsylvanian" in the Philadelphia Federal Gazette, June 18, 1789 at 2 col. 1. |
