After a fatal shooting and two lockdowns in the first few weeks of this semester, some UNC students are calling for gun control legislation. But N.C. Speaker of the House Tim Moore disagrees.
After the August 28 shooting, a hush fell over campus as students began processing the event. In the days that followed, that hush was replaced with a yell demanding action. Students wanted to feel heard and shine a light on their new reality.
16 days after Professor Zijie Yan was shot, UNC went into lockdown again, when a man allegedly pulled out a gun in the student union. For students and others, it’s been a time of turmoil and stress.
