Gun Control!

On Monday February 22,2016 the Austin American Statesman released an article about the legislatures need to reconsider the new campus carry law. The law basically states that public universities are to allow concealed handgun license owners to bring their weapon to school. The author argues that the public universities should have the same option as the private  universities to opt out of the gun law. The author feels this way because many of the private schools in Texas like Baylor TCU, and
SMU have opted out. I agree with author ,as a college student myself, school is a place for learning an if a school doesn't want guns on their campus then they shouldn't have to. It seems like the university of Texas doesn't want to abide to the law, well at least their dean doesn't. .However, the schools are publicly funded so they have to follow to law. One disadvantage of the public schools is that their recruitment process could be hurt because of the students' fear. I believe a school might lose a little bit of recruitment but for the most part most students will still go. Even though guns are allowed in the classroom the guns aren't allowed in dorms. Which is there for a little compromise. To most college students I don't believe it makes a difference.
in closing statements the author believes that all universities should have the option to opt out of the gun law because their dean and supervisors know best and should help decide in their favor.
