So, I was just at the Chesapeake Campus inquiring about classes that would transfer to ODU. At the time, I disarmed my pistol into my glovebox and locked it before I headed inside.
I got the information I needed, and before I headed back to my vehicle, I inquired about one last thing with Campus Security, and that was the TCC Firearms Policy. They didn't seem friendly, nor did they like my question. They asked me if I had a gun on my person at the time which is answered No to. After the short bickering back and forth about gun laws and policys regard colleges, their answer was along the lines of
"What ever is State/Federal policy is TCC policy"
After searching TCC.edu, it was hard press trying to finding something regarding the firearms policy. I didn't want to show up to the first day of class, concealed carrying, then have some ruckas over something the Security Guard on duty said (WhichI did record our conversation via cell phone) that turned out to be wrong.
I had the Dean of Chesapeake TCC give me a call and she for informed me of the new policy regarding weapons @ TCC which I've attached for your viewing pleasure. Nonetheless, the Security Guards were wrong, they were notified of the new policy (though it wasn't blatant in the TCC Handbook becuase it was just approved ), and I could have gotten suspended or even expelled for my actions.
After talking to the Dean expressing my concerns of safety, she did say that the Chesapeake Campus Security working there now, was not getting thier contract renewed and that could have been the reason why they had such a bitter attitude. No wonder they didn't seem pleasant.
