Lawmakers in six states are pushing bills to allow concealed carry on public college campuses, citing self-defense benefits. However, opponents worry about increased risks of accidents or rash acts. This comes after a deadly campus shooting in Virginia, highlighting the ongoing debate about gun regulations on campuses. States can regulate campuses, but courts are still determining the extent of these bans. Wyoming has passed a law lowering the concealed carry age to eighteen, while Louisianas bill would allow anyone eighteen or older to carry concealed on campuses with restrictions. New Hampshires measure to block campus gun bans passed the House, and Utahs allows concealed carry after an on-campus killing. South Dakota rejected their bill, and Florida okayed arming select faculty after training. These efforts are part of a wider move for permitless carry in twenty-nine states, keeping the campus carry fight alive.
