Jim (Deros) has been transferred to the UW Medical Center. He is pretty rough but is hoping a procedure will help.
While visiting today I noticed the gun buster sign. Haha, I have included the WAC language and the consequences. I 'may' be asked to leave. Notice that it must be a uniformed campus police officer and no one else.
Anyway, CC is my choice while visiting.
