Since the state of Arkansas allowed the college's to let on guns on campus at discretion of college's board member's I don't think any boards have approved in favor. I just wonder if the federal government has threatened to cut off federal funding if they did to allow guns on campus. I know this sounds like a conspiracy theory but anyone else had this question?

From what I've read of the law it allows employees with a valid permit to carry unless the university opts to add restrictions. So far two large schools have decided to continue the ban but that leaves many that haven't.

Recently on the news I saw that SAU in Magnolia is the latest to opt out.
