Concealed guns on campus?

University of Utah President Michael Young says students have the right to learn without fear. He says the right to carry concealed weapons on campus would cause fear.

Two days later I open the paper to see a large photo of fearful students running for their lives. My first thought is, "Are these U. students? Are they running in fear from the dreaded concealed weapon?"

As I read further, my fears are relieved; these are Canadian students who have nothing to fear, because they have no concealed weapons on their campuses. Silly Canadian students. Then why are they running in fear?
