Can someone inform me on the topic of carrying on a college campus?
Now, if you hold a valid CCW permit, the penalty for getting caught armed on a college campus in NV is not nearly as severe as if you did not have the permit.
So I guess open carry is a no go at college football games?
Not that I plan on going. Just trying to get informed.

Curious. NRS that defines this? I did not know that.

Expect the Campus Carry legislation to make a comeback in the next legislative session.
Since you are new here, hurry up and get registered to vote! State offices are important, and are often won by just a few votes.

In nevada you may only carry with permission from the school leader. That holds true for any school public private any age student. Also you may not so much as have your firearm on school property. Not on your car locked in a safe. No place.
NRS 394.103 “Private schools” defined. “Private schools” means private elementary and secondary educational institutions. The term does not include a home in which instruction is provided to a child who is excused from compulsory attendance pursuant to subsection 1 of NRS 392.070.
Private colleges and universities are not "schools" according to NRS. I am of the opinion that the restriction from possessing on the property of the NSHE does not prohibit possession at a private university or college (other than the prohibition of concealed carry at vocational or technical schools).
I believed that for a bit but what about these lines from the NRS?
