They have to depend on the local cops, who have their hands full already to take care of the kids. It does not work very well. We already have CCW permits for state residents but the majority of these kids are from all around the states.

A campus is much different from the surrounding areas. It is much safer......er....usually (thank you Merc) much safer and usually more patrolled. There will always be violent crimes with or without guns and I think a lot of universities, especially mine, has done a great job of keeping the students safe without the need to carry a gun for protection.
The time I can think of supporting guns on campus is if the students vote to allow guns be on that campus, if there is no vote or the vote loses, then guns should stay banned. That is the only fair and safe way I see campuses and gun control working out.
