It looks like Liberty University of Virginia is trying to live up to its name. Hopefully they will alow it.

Liberty University will consider whether to allow concealed weapon permit holders to carry guns on campus at its next board of trustees meeting, Chancellor Jerry Falwell Jr. said Thursday.

Falwell said he decided to bring the matter before the board for discussion after a group of LU students requested it. The next board of trustees meeting is in March.

“We just have a group on campus that’s been promoting that idea, and I really don’t have a good feel for whether our community would support it or not,” Falwell said. “So I just decided to take it to the board.”

Currently the university does not allow those with concealed weapons permits to carry a gun on campus, he said.

The board of trustees has 38 members, including Falwell and his brother Jonathan. The body may not make a decision on the issue, Falwell said, but will at least consider it.

“I want to make sure that we look at it long and hard before we make a decision,” he said.
