Texas A & M - gun stored in car - legal?

Headed to CS this weekend for the NCAA baseball regionals and thought I'd bring my guns and catch some range time when not at a game. I'm staying in a hotel and don't want to leave my guns in the room, so they'll be unloaded and locked in my car.
Is there a rule about guns on Texas college campuses in general or A & M in particular? I know the odds of having my car searched are pretty slim, but i don't need the hassle.

If your a CHL holder, then you can have your guns locked in your vehicle and out of sight.

Leave your gun locked in the car, and you will be perfectly legal parked at a college campus.

Even for Aggies.

Yes even in the garages. Just not IN any bldg. That's what UPD told me when I was a student there a couple of years back.

You can even carry it with you ON campus as long as you stay on walkways, streets, etc. (basically outside any building) - oh yeah... and as long as there isn't an official school sponsored even going on in the area you're carrying.

But yes, as others have said - your car is A-OK.

It had better be ok, I had one in my car every day I went there. And several times strolling through campus I was armed.
