Bill to allow guns on Arizona college campuses is vetoed

April 19, 2011
Higher-education administrators had strongly opposed the proposal

From The Arizona Republic: University officials and students in Arizona are cheering Gov. Jan Brewer's decision to veto a bill that would have allowed guns on university and community-college campuses. Higher-education officials had lobbied heavily against the bill, saying it would lead to potentially dangerous situations. In her veto letter, Brewer - typically a strong supporter of gun rights - called the bill "poorly written" and said it lacked clarity.
