My wife took her CCW class today and was told that the parking lot exclusion only applies to public parking. The instructor stated that parking lots where students/faculty have to buy permits to park are prohibited to leave your gun in the car.

The instructor stated that it was specifically because they are not open to "any" vehicle as stated in the statute.

Anyone ever heard of that?

I THOUGHT the whole hubbub was about making it legal for students to leave their weapons in their car, in the lot, since they for sure can't take them into their dorm.
again never payed a lot of attention cause I  really didn't care.
should be easy enough to find out, just ring up David.
