I like the literal "bullet points" on the first poster. That's classic.

Kudos for them.

I did as well, except the "15 hour class", the rest looks correct

I was annoyed when a few weeks ago the sga at utep was having a "no guns on campus rally" in which they were hoping to get several thousand signatures against campus carry to send to Rick perry.

Its encouraging to see another group of college kids in support of this bill. And are dedicated to educating people about the facts of concealed carry and the bill. Not the misinformation that some of the other local news outlets seem to like to spread.

Kudos to you guys and great job! :clapping:
