Hey guys. I noticed there's no central resource for finding out which schools here in Oregon allow students and/or faculty to carry, so I'm going to make one. I just want to get your opinions on the letter I'll be sending them. I know I can find the information in their student handbook, but I want to hear them tell me for themselves (hopefully).
Hello,
My name is Joey Link. I’m a college student from Portland, currently enrolled in Portland Community College. My days at PCC are growing shorter, and I’m beginning to search for a bachelor program in which to enroll. As I research schools and look into the various aspects of each I’ve found one of those aspects stands side by side with the quality of the actual program in which I’d be enrolling – student and campus safety. This is an especially important issue, considering the recent tragedy at Virginia Tech.
As I looked for information on what each school does to protect its students, I noticed there was no central source for this information. I then figured, since I would be asking so many schools, I ought to publish my findings on the internet for other students to use as well. I know it will be of particular importance to know your policy regarding the concealed carry of firearms (for both students and faculty), especially for students such as myself licensed to carry and choose to do so on campus. I’d really appreciate if you could get back to be as soon as possible.
Thank you,
Joey Link
