Lol, I just did the same thing and page 118 says Firearms are not permitted on University Grounds. So just reading that line police are not allowed, but like you just said 76 says except by police.

As visitors technially the school can't govern us I guess. That's good enough reason for me to carry when I'm heading down to SCSU at 9, 10 or 11 at night or up at 5am.

They don't define what the public that aren't students are allowed to do on the campus.

When I went to SCSU in the late 80s/early 90s, I carried all the time. There were no signs of any kind on the buildings. That was what my atty told me was "fair warning". So I carried.

I frankly would have carried anyway. I lived on Whalley Ave and rode my bike to class. This was the era of Crack Cocaine and my neighborhood was like dodge city. But thats where I could afford to live.

The funny thing was that when I was carrying I was a MORE mature and responsible person. I would not drink when carrying, EVER, if I was at a bar to socialize or see a band and any kind of disturbance started I was out the door as quickly as I could get out.

Carrying a firearm at the age of 21 weighed heavily on me. I understood the huge responsibility that came with my right.

When I was not carrying, I was the same stupid, drunk, irresponsible idiot that most of us were at 21 years of age.
