My school has decided that my personal safety is not as important as I thought it was. Here is a quote from an e-mail I received:
There has been some misunderstanding because a new state law in Florida could allow students with concealed weapons permits to keep guns in their cars while on campus. However, students are not permitted to have a weapon anywhere on campus because Santa Fe College has chosen to exercise the new law’s special exception for educational institutions.
SFCC has decided to deny a right granted by the Federal AS WELL AS State Government so that I may protect myself. This ruling comes from the same law enforcement agency that patrols the perimeter of the school inside their SUV’s with the windows up. This tactic works if Sante Fe is trying to prevent a Russian invasion; however, soaking up A/C does very little in the way of stopping the student moving through the cafeteria pointing his firearm at everyone. Thank you SFCC PD, I feel safe.
