Notification Letter for Campus Administrators and Campus
Police:
(This letter should be sent, via both email and registered
or certified
mail, to the campus administrators and campus police at each school that will
have students participating in the Empty Holster Protest. Notification letters
and emails should be sent no later than Wednesday, April 16, 2007.)

To Whom It May Concern:
During
the week of April 21-25, students on the campus of (NAME OF SCHOOL) will be joining college
students across the nation in peacefully protesting against state laws and
campus policies that prohibit concealed handgun license holders from carrying
their concealed firearms on college campuses. We believe that licensed
individuals legally permitted to carry concealed handguns virtually everywhere
else in the state of (NAME OF STATE WHERE SCHOOL IS LOCATED), from office buildings
to movie theaters, should be allowed the same measure of personal security on
college campuses.
This will
be a peaceful protest. The nature of the protest will be limited to students
wearing T-shirts and EMPTY holsters and handing out flyers. The significance of
the empty holsters is to symbolize that students, faculty, and guests are left
defenseless on college campuses; therefore, no protestor will carry anything
resembling a firearm in his or her holster. Protestors will not carry signs or
banners, and nobody will make any attempt to disturb the peace. Protestors will
simply go about their daily routines while wearing holsters, which, in both
appearance and function, differ only slightly from cell phone holsters.

any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me. Thank you for your
time.
