I don't buy the rationale, and I don't thing concealed carry on campus necessarily improves safety or deters violence.
You don't buy the rationale? I take it you don't approve of concealed carry in general then? Or perhaps you can explain to me how the same person who is OK to carry a firearm in a movie theater, in a restaurant, on a crowded public street, etc. suddenly becomes dangerous when he crosses on to a college campus?

Less guns among binge-drinking college kids
Texas law already prohibits carrying a firearm while intoxicated or carrying a firearm in a bar. There are a lot more drunk college students walking down Greenville in Dallas (where concealed carry would be legal) than there are walking around the SMU campus (where concealed carry is illegal).

Again, not convinced that this is any sort of improvement, other than allowing small people to feel big on college campuses.
Nice ad hominem; but does it really help your argument.
