- Abstract
This study examined 254 students attitudes towards gun control. Of central concern was whether criminal justice students altitudes were different from other students attending a medium-sized southern university. Findings show criminal justice majors are more opposed to gun control measures than non-criminal justice measures. As well, results show gender and racial differences in attitudes to this controversial issue. Implications for research on students' attitudes about gun control and ways to educators could use these findings in the classroom are provided.
