"Be careful discussing sensitive topics," professors at the University of Houston were warned in a faculty meeting about the new "Campus carry" gun policy.

A spokesperson at the University of Houston stressed in a message to Salon that this slide was not created by the university's Campus Carry Workgroup and "Is not official policy." The spokesperson also indicated that the university's draft policy is expected to be released in the next week.

"The University of Houston takes issues surrounding campus safety and guns on campus very seriously and will strive to create policies that comply with the new Campus Carry law, protect the rights of citizens, and address the safety and security of the entire campus," the spokesperson said.

The University of Houston police department notes that firearms are presently banned in university buildings.

The University of Houston told Salon it created "a 15-member Campus Carry Work Group comprised of representatives throughout various University departments and groups with the responsibility to develop a campus carry policy that is compliant with the new campus carry law."

It additionally noted that final drafts of the campus carry policies are expected to be presented to the University of Houston System Board of Regents in May. In late 2015, the University of Houston faculty senate passed a resolution opposing the "Campus carry" law.
