Well, I met with a representative of the Attorney General's office last week and was enlightened by their take on the open carry at University Health facilities. Since Title 10 of state code forbids the open carry at a school, a reading of the "school" definitions was eye-opening. Contrary to the U.S. code, Utah includes vocational and higher education facilities in it's definition of the word and what is more, any associated facility to that school, (i.e. UUHC Community Clinics) whether or not any teaching activity actually takes place there. So, as of this posting , it's a non-winner.
The only means of proceding from here is to get the legislature to change the definition. (or simply repeal that portion of the definition) Until then , only concealcarry permit holders may exercise their RKBA at any State University or University associated facilities. So if you're too poor to afford a permit, your rights don't count.
I do intend to write & call my state rep & senator. Please do the same.
