A bill in the Texas legislature would allow concealed carry permit holders to bring handguns into university buildings and dorms. Currently they can only carry on campus grounds. Nearly half of states allow some form of concealed carry on public campuses, with Utah alone allowing it at all public universities. Studies of campuses that do allow concealed carry found no incidents of gun violence involving permit holders. However, most students, university leaders, and citizens oppose bills to remove restrictions on college campuses.
