A federal judge last week refused a lawsuit by three University of Texas professors who do not want legal concealed carry in their classes.
U.S. District Judge Earl Leroy Yeakel III found the professors could not prove their case, which centered on First Amendment grounds. The faculty members, three female liberal arts professors whose classwork sometimes touches on controversial subjects such as abortion and unwanted pregnancies, argued the carry of guns in their classes would chill discussion, thus hindering their right to free speech.
Yeakel, a UT alumni appointed to the bench by President George W. Bush, held the professors did not show exactly how they were injured by the campus carry law which took effect on public colleges and universities in the state last year.
“Here, Plaintiffs ask the court to find standing based on their self-imposed censoring of classroom discussions caused by their fear of the possibility of illegal activity by persons not joined in this lawsuit,” said Yeakel. “Plaintiffs present no concrete evidence to substantiate their fears, but instead rest on ‘mere conjecture about possible … actions.'”
