Nat, you are dead on...but, according to the Roanoke Times, at least one student was disciplined for carrying a firearm, even though he had a concealed carry permit; even the Virginia Association of Police Chiefs agreed with this action.

Are the V.T. staff, along with the local politicians who struck down a bill allowing for students and faculty to excercise their concealed-carry permits, having second thoughts now? I doubt it...more likely they are still patting themselves on the back for being so opposed to honest citizens having guns.
