MADISON, Wis. — In light of the recent violence in the campus and downtown areas, student safety has become a hot-button issue, and a new campus group said it has a solution: concealed carry.
The group is called Students for Concealed Carry on Campus. It’s a national organization with 25,000 members. The University of Wisconsin-Madison chapter formed in the last few weeks.
The group says putting guns in the hands of responsible, licensed citizens will make the UW-Madison campus, as a whole, a safer place.
