But what is the best way to approach the matter of firearms on a campus full of students?

The state has delegated the issue of concealed carry to the universities, though no university in Texas allows concealed carry within university buildings. A recent push by the A&M Student Senate to pass the Texas A&M Personal Protection Bill would call on the Texas government to mandate that public universities allow concealed carry on campus and in buildings. The vote passed 38-19, but a senator’s motion for reconsideration delayed the bill. Student referendums in 2009 and 2011 did not support concealed carry on campus.

A&M policy currently allows concealed carry on campus, but not in university buildings.
