PRESS RELEASES
Secretary Spellings Seeks Public Comment on Campus and School Safety

FOR RELEASE:
April 27, 2007

Contact: Casey Ruberg
(202) 401-1576

Albuquerque, N.M. ? Last week, in the wake of the tragic events at Virginia Tech, President Bush called on U.S. Secretary of Education Margaret Spellings, Attorney General Alberto Gonzalez and U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Mike Leavitt to lead a national dialogue on ways we can prevent tragedies in America's schools and on our college campuses.

As part of this effort, Secretary Spellings today met with state and local leaders, educators, mental health experts, parents, students, and local law enforcement officials in Albuquerque, to determine how the federal government can best help states and localities keep students safe. Secretary Spellings announced that she is seeking public comment online at http://www.ed.gov/admins/lead/safety/dialogue.html in an effort to expand this important discussion and gather thoughts and suggestions from across the country. Secretary Spellings will consider these suggestions as she develops recommendations for a report to President Bush next month.

"Nothing is more important to American parents than the safety of their children," said Secretary Spellings. "I invite all concerned Americans?parents, educators, law enforcement officials and students?to share their ideas about school safety online at safeschools@ed.gov. Together, we can strengthen our best practices, raise awareness of warning signs and help prevent tragedies."

Carry at NH universities still allowed?

It hasn't stopped me from doing it on a few occasions with my shiny new handgun but I dont ccw on campus very often. Really only at night.

I dont really feel like checking if it's illegal or against campus policy or anything the entire point is that it's concealed.
