Despite the coming 'campus carry' law, Texas A&M System officials still want to ban firearms in certain parts of campus, including healthcare facilities , according to an article on the Patch website.
University officials have issued their recommended rules ahead of the August implementation of a law allowing licensed firearms to tote them on school grounds.
Texas A&M is seeking to ban guns at scientific laboratories, research areas, counseling centers and healthcare facilities.
Also, school officials are hoping to be able to ban guns where formal administrative hearings are staged, sports venues hosting intercollegiate athletic meets are held, among other sensitive areas.
