Zac Wood, a Navy veteran looking to earn his graduate degree, says he'd prefer a school that allowed students to carry concealed weapons.

Interesting that they lead with potential students who might want to go to a college where licensed carry is allowed. That is different.

Grad school wish list:

Close to family
Tuition Aid
Football Team
Campus Carry
Military/PTSD experience

My list of schools I am considering expanded greatly after SMU and Baylor opted out of Campus Carry. Right now Texas A&M is probably my top choice with UNT, Baylor, and SMU all competing for second.
