    What's the transporation method for the class trip and where will you be joining the trip?

    If the conveyance leaves from the school or returns to the school, possession of a weapon on the conveyance would run afoul of 18 Pa CSA 912(b).
    IANAL

    Although that part of the city (Museum District) is one of the nicer areas, I think the concern would be more going from and getting back to your car, if you were to leave your gun locked inside, than the institute itself.

    As for better safe than sorry, damn right, plenty of examples of so called safe areas becoming killing zones.
