The relevant information is as follows:

790.251 Protection of the right to keep and bear arms in motor vehicles for self-defense and other lawful purposes; prohibited acts; duty of public and private employers; immunity from liability; enforcement.

(7) EXCEPTIONS.--The prohibitions in subsection (4) do not apply to:

(a) Any school property as defined and regulated under s. 790.115.

3. In a vehicle pursuant to s. 790.25(5); except that school districts may adopt written and published policies that waive the exception in this subparagraph for purposes of student and campus parking privileges.

As long as your school does not have a written and adopted policy disallowing it then you should be fine to keep it concealed in your car.

The only other question I would have is how often does your school search your vehicle when entering/leaving campus? You may now draw your own conclusions.

College campuses do not qualify as school districts-

Yes they do:

For the purposes of this section, "school" means any preschool, elementary school, middle school, junior high school, secondary school, career center, or postsecondary school, whether public or nonpublic.

Colleges & Universities (as well as private schools) are not "School Districts". School Districts are specific legal entities and are political subdivisions of the State.

The protections outlined in 790.251 do not apply to Schools of any type - Private/public/universities/etc.
The provisions in 790.251 protecting visitors and guests were ruled unconstitutional, so now 790.251 only applies to employees (except for school employees and employees of the other locations described in the statute)

Exception 3 in 790.115 allow individuals to keep firearms in their cars on campus as long as they are stored in accordance with 790.25(5). So yes you can keep a pistol in your glovebox on campus, legally. Now if it is found, somehow, I'm sure you will be kicked out of school, but no legal action can take place.

So what was ruled unconstitutional and how do you interpret the section of the law that says?

For the purposes of this section, "school" means any preschool, elementary school, middle school, junior high school, secondary school, career center, or postsecondary school, whether public or nonpublic.

My understanding of the term postsecondary equates to "Schools of any type - Private/public/universities."

Are you saying that a University cannot

...waive the exception in this subparagraph for purposes of student and campus parking privileges.

If a University Campus is not prohibited, then, it's simply a question of school policy. A violation of a school policy doesn't have anything to do with compliance of the law.

If a college parking lot isn't prohibited by law, you're not breaking any law by leaving your gun in your car. The worst the college can do to you if caught is expell you or terminate your employment, which ever is relevant. And, again, how often does your campus security search vehicles? Truthfully? If your campus is anything like the two I frequent, how often do you even SEE campus security.

I atttend and teach between a communitiy college and a local University. I Have left my gun in my car while there. FWIW

A funny story about the University that I work at. I asked the head of security about the schools stance on Employees with guns in their cars. I asked if he had ever been led to believe that it was cause for termination. His response was, "if it is against the rules I am not aware... and I hope they never look in my truck (of course he said this with a slight smirk and I got the point)."
