University of Nevada faculty to carry?

Wow. Just wow.
The University of Nevada Board of Regents is willing to spend $3K per faculty member for 21 weeks of training so they can be deputized to do an end run around a state law banning guns on campus.

Now, I doubt many will take them up on the offer. And it does seem like "some potential victims are more equal than others". But could you imagine Case doing such a thing?

When Myles Brand pushed through his no carry on campus policy at IU, the only way the trustees would rubber stamp it was to specify no carry for staff and students only -- that is, faculty can carry without violating the policy, but office workers and students cannot. I suspect, based on my reading of Indiana state law, that the policy (and all others like it) is illegal, but I'm not an attorney.
