Even if it is its own municipality, PSU rules only apply to students. Since I am not a student (anymore), I can carry my firearm onto campus and there is nothing they can do legally except ask me to leave. Also consider that you, as a student of PSU, are allowded to carry your firearm on campus. But you simply face suspension or getting expelled if caught. Nothing will happen to you legally from the state of PA. Just judicial action from Penn State itself.
Nothing different than my employer telling me I am not allowded to bring firearms, or guns of any kind into company buildings. But I carry everyday with the understanding that if I can caught, I will probably be terminated, even though I didn't break any law.
But I would rather be able to defend myself and not have a job than have a job that I can't goto because I am six feet underground. Similarly, when I was a student, I rathered that if anything happened, I was alive to get expelled than defenseless and dead.
