Which college was this? Do you have a link to the news report?

1. UT said you can't have a round in the chamber. Not compliant of course, as they can't tell you "how" to carry.

The UT System board of regents overruled that policy, but Central Texas Community College in Killeen adopted the same policy.

SCC press releases on UT's proposed policies:

It remains to be seen whether any community colleges will press the issue. Here is a press release one of the SCC directors wrote on the topic: http://www.dallasnews.com/opinion/comme ... l-students

Here are a few articles on the successful implementation of campus carry at Texas's four-year universities:
