>Unlawful possession on university premises is prohibited, with the several recognized lawful purpose exceptions explicitly spelled out.

PS — If you want to get into the minutia of the details, one of the exceptions in that law is firearms in a “private conveyance;”

Ditionary.com defines conveyance as:
1. — the act of conveying; transmission; communication.
2. — a means of transporting, esp. a vehicle, as a bus, airplane, or automobile.
3. — Law.
a. - the transfer of property from one person to another.
b. - the instrument or document by which this is effected.

It is obvious by usage that Definition #2 is what meant in the statute; it i the only reading that makes sense.
Dictionary.com defines holster as:
1. — a sheath-like carrying case for a firearm, attached to a belt, shoulder sling, or saddle.

Now, it is obvious that a carrying case is a conveyance.
So I should, therefore, be able to open carry on campus, no?

No. But please feel free to try out that frivolous argument in court.
