I agree that it's a bad idea. You certainly have a right to protest, but how you protest can either help or harm your cause, regardless of which issue you are protesting. The empty holster would be a more effective protest. An additional piece of "flair" might be to carry a placard at all times with a running list of those crime victims who were victimized on your campus. For each victim, list the name, the type of crime, the place the crime occurred, the amount of time AFTER the crime occurred before campus police got involved, and whether or not the perpetrator has been caught and convicted. Add each new victim to the bottom of the list throughout the year.

Bonus points: instead of a placard, put the list on a scroll and carry the scroll in your holster. When asked about it, "draw" the scroll and hand it to them to read for themselves. That can be a non-confrontational conversation starter giving you a chance to propose campus carry in a calm and rational one-on-one manner. Those are the best kinds of conversations, with the best chance of actually converting someone to the cause.
