My girlfriend goes to hacc. Since I been there with her a few times I havent saw no firearm signs around the place. Could I CC there, Since no signs an how would I be aware of there policy if they had one since im not a student?
One can assume that a community college is a county instrumentality (chartered by the county, possibly funded by the county, etc.). If such is the case, it would be illegal for the community college to post any "no guns" signs since such would violate state preemption on the regulation of firearms. Correct?

Likewise, any "regulation" in the school's student guide would also be preempted. Yes?

Of course, it would take a student (thus establishing "standing") to file a lawsuit in common pleas court to overturn such firearms restrictions. One need not imagine what the result would be for the student and his/her enrollment.
