Student Group Educates Others On Gun Issues Wisconsin remains one of two states that do not allow carrying a concealed firearm for self-protection. That fact isn't preventing a University of Wisconsin-Madison student group from educating their fellow students about responsible firearms ownership and urging state lawmakers to pass a concealed carry bill, reports the university's Daily Cardinal. The Student Alliance for Firearm Education and Responsibility (SAFER), in addition to holding shoots for students, has also been active in supporting concealed-carry legislation. The legislation has been passed by the state Legislature twice, but has been vetoed by Gov. Jim Doyle both times.
