I spoke with an MSU student who said that even possessing a gun in your car is a felony, I didn't think so, but thought I would ask.

A Sargent with MSU Public Safety has told me they will enforce their Ordinance on anyone who is in a campus building. Including those carrying firearms. Those traversing campus on a public road would not be charged.
It is a misdemeanor, not a felony. It may be a misdemeanor that would bar a CPL?

Valid point, but what if they were OC? What would they charge them with, just their ordinance?
As I said, MSU Public Safety is of the opinion preemption doesn't apply to them. (I won't state if I agree or disagree, that'd be interjecting my opinion. I'm just stating the facts here).
I was told by Public Safety anyone in a Campus Building would be brought up on a misdemeanor charge for violating their ordinance. You would be tried in the local District Court (54B District Court of Michigan).
Want to test what would happen if you OC'd in an MSU building (with a CPL or otherwise)? ...it'd be an interesting court case.
Same reason you can't carry ad CADL, I can't carry in Waterford schools, and LilFreak cant get an LTP.
Apples and oranges:
CADL- the reason I can't carry there is a TRO.
Waterford Schools- can't carry there because schools are not covered under preemption
MSU- can't carry there because a cop thinks we can't. It appears that his bosses, the MSU board, think otherwise.
How are public schools not under preemption?

a) “Local unit of government” means a city, village, township, or county.
because mcl 123.1101 defines "a local unit of government" and it does not include school districts.

it is still lawful to cc in the parking areas of school property, or in your vehicle while picking up/dropping your child even if not technically in a 'parking area". It is also ok to oc with cpl anywhere you are allowed to be while at a school. If asked to leave by the correct person and you refuse you may face a trespassing charge. Are schools allowed to make rules regarding possession of firearms? It is difficult to say, but they do not appear to be covered by preemption under mcl 123.1102.
If that's the case, I don't see MOC winning their court case.
