I work full time at a university, and I have thought about this scenario, especially because the police force on my campus tends be be very aggressive in traffic enforcement. Mostly I just don't carry to work because of the hassle of disarming/storing/re-arming, all within my vehicle. But on the occasions I have carried, I've often wondered what would happen if stopped. I'm not so much concerned about administration taking action against me for legally carrying a firearm in my vehicle, but I am more concerned about an uninformed officer blowing the situation out of proportion.

I know of campus officers who are especially touchy about "guns on campus" due to recent histories. My concern is that an over-zealous officer, after finding I am armed (legally, within my own vehicle), assumes that I must be breaking the law because (sarc) everybody knows you can't carry a gun onto a university campus (/sarc). I can see myself being held at gunpoint, arrested, etc, because of ignorance.
