The state of Texas passed a campus carry law that is set to take effect
on August 1, 2016. Already, professors at the University of Houston were
told that once the new law is effective, they might want to “be careful
discussing sensitive topics,” “drop certain topics from your
curriculum,” “’Not go there’ if you sense anger,” “limit students access
off hours,” “go to appointment-only office hours,” and “only meet ‘that
student’ in controlled circumstances.”

A dean at the University of Texas-Austin announced last week that he
would be leaving the school, citing concerns regarding state campus
carry legislation that goes into effect Aug. 1. The law will
allow handgun owners (Students!) to carry concealed firearms on public college
campuses including inside buildings.
Steiner will take over as dean of University of Pennsylvania School
of Design on July 1. "I would have never applied for another job if not for campus carry,"
he said in an interview. "I felt that I was going to be responsible for
managing a law I didn't believe in."
