The Destruction of Higher Education

74. I am not sure you know how it works in an university

It is well within the purview of a professor to cancel a class for any reason. Once you have tenure you also can not easily be fired on the spot. You can not replace an academic like you do an assembly line worker. Each of them bring a unique perspective and knowledge to the university and they all compete to get and retain the best of them.
Getting rid of a tenured professor who is a strong academic is something that the board would never be able to do given that most other colleagues will think alike, including those sitting on the board , the university could not "purge" professors who do not bend to the will of the NRA whether or not there is a CCW law in that state. I definitely would not allow somebody with a weapon in my class. Now, of course I do not have to face this since the state where I teach does not yet allow weapons in the university.

finally, if it is a private university the whole thing is moot since they can decide if they allow weapons on the premises just like any privately owned business regardless of the state or federal laws.
