What is “Law and Order?”
Law and Order is the state of society where vast majority of the population respects the rule of law, and where the law enforcement agencies observe laws that limit their powers. Maintaining law and order implies firm dealing with occurrences of theft, violence, and disturbance of peace.
Behrend v. State (1977) case was a breach of contract by Ohio University. The complete paragraph stated:
Bleicher v. Univ. of Cincinnati College of Med. (1992) was also a breach of contract case. Again, the case had nothing to do with student code of conduct.
Mahalati v. Ohio State University (2007) was in regards to the discharge of a student under R.C. 3345.23(D) for criminal acts, aggravated burglary and felonious assault.
The student code of conduct must not fall outside the confines of “Law and Order.” And R.C. 3345.21 mandates the university board of trustees “not restrict freedom of speech nor the right of persons on the campus to assemble peacefully.”
The open carrying of firearms across campus is an exercise of that First Amendment right.

3345.21 Board of trustees to maintain law and order on campus - administration and enforcement of rules.
The board of trustees of any college or university which receives any state funds in support thereof, shall regulate the use of the grounds, buildings, equipment, and facilities of such college or university and the conduct of the students, staff, faculty, and visitors to the campus so that law and order are maintained and the college or university may pursue its educational objectives and programs in an orderly manner. The board of trustees of each such college or university shall adopt rules for the conduct of the students, faculty, visitors, and staff, and may provide for the ejection from college or university property, suspension or expulsion of a person who violates such regulations. All such rules shall be published in a manner reasonably designed to come to the attention of, and be available to, all faculty, staff, visitors, and students. The board of trustees shall provide for the administration and enforcement of its rules and may authorize the use of state university law enforcement officers provided for in section 3345.04 of the Revised Code to assist in enforcing the rules and the law on the campus of the college or university. The board of trustees, or appropriate officials of such college or university when the authority to do so has been delegated by the board of trustees, may seek the assistance of other appropriate law enforcement officers to enforce the rules and to enforce laws for the preservation of good order on the campus, and to prevent the disruption of the educational functions of the college or university. The rules of the board of trustees shall not restrict freedom of speech nor the right of persons on the campus to assemble peacefully.
Behrend v. State (1977) case was a breach of contract by Ohio University. The complete paragraph stated:
The case had nothing to do with the student code of conduct.The determination of the major issues presented in this case as set forth in assignment of error number two [The Court erred in not finding that a contract existed between Ohio University and the students who are the Plaintiff-Appellants and that Defendants breached it.] is, in the main, based upon the relationship which existed between Ohio University and these students. Generally it may be stated that when a student enrolls in a college or university, pays his or her tuition and fees, and attends such school, the resulting relationship may reasonably be construed as being contractual in nature.
Bleicher v. Univ. of Cincinnati College of Med. (1992) was also a breach of contract case. Again, the case had nothing to do with student code of conduct.
Mahalati v. Ohio State University (2007) was in regards to the discharge of a student under R.C. 3345.23(D) for criminal acts, aggravated burglary and felonious assault.
The student code of conduct must not fall outside the confines of “Law and Order.” And R.C. 3345.21 mandates the university board of trustees “not restrict freedom of speech nor the right of persons on the campus to assemble peacefully.”
