Deadly Weapons Allowed On College Campus

{Louisville, Kentucky}...The Kentucky Supreme Court ruled Thursday that guns and other deadly weapons may be stored in a car's glove compartment while on a college campus in the state. The ruling came in the case of University of Kentucky graduate student and anesthesia technician Michael Mitchell, who sued the university after he lost his job in 2009 after campus police found a semi-automatic pistol in his car. Fayette Circuit Judge Pamela Goodwine ruled in favor of the university, but the high court reinstated Mitchell's suit after concluding the law allows guns to be kept in a car's glove compartment.
