A 20-year-old Dartmouth student says she may have to give up her Ivy League dream and drop out of school because the prestigious college won't allow her to carry a gun—to protect herself against a predator.
Taylor Woolrich, a junior, says Dartmouth administrators told her they won’t let her carry a gun on campus, even though she lives in fear of a man who has been stalking her since she was a high school student in San Diego.

Many, many thanks. Great idea. 3 to 4 meters is all we need.
It’s why I love FR.
Thanks FRiend.
Identify one university in America that doesn’t ban guns.
It’s actually old school in a 38 for close quarters defense. They part no flesh and hit pretty hard. They also deform well at those velocities.
Relying on hollow points to expand at snub nose 38 5-shooter velocities is a little iffy in my opinion. They would aid in slipping through heavy winter clothing though over wadcutters.
See if it’s rated for plus p’s and use them if you go HP’s. I used to like the Federal Hydra shocks for that. Carefully research for performance and expansion with the various factory loadings.

If she is willing to compensate me appropriately, I can relieve her of the source of her fears...
We have ways to deal with this, sweetie.
Settle down, Francis
Hahahahaaha
Thank you for the informative response. I had no idea that the 2nd amendment had made any inroads on American Universities. Nonetheless, this limits a student’s choices to seven states.
Utah law prohibits banning guns on public universities.

Yes, I was schooled by FReeper nascarnation on this topic. I’ll gladly eat my humble pie, happy in knowing there are Universities in seven states that (grudgingly no doubt) honor our 2nd amendment.

It was a valid question, and it made me look up the answer.
Good for him! It’s nice to see someone being rewarded for doing good.
