Concealed carry complicates campus security

By Brendan Cooper —

Two Kentucky universities made the “Top 25 Safest College Campuses in the U.S.” Unfortunately, the University of Louisville was not one of them.

The University of the Cumberlands and Northern Kentucky University both made the cut as two of the safest college campuses in the country.
