What makes something a University?

If something is merely affiliated with LSU, is it part of the university?

If I wear an LSU shirt, am I now a university?

University rented/leased/owned property. SLU is in Hammond, but they have campuses in BR and Covington. That's all part of the University.

If they use it for anything related to the University, then I'm sure it would be considered part of the University.

But would it qualify as a "school" and thus be a prohibited place by law?

Or would such warnings simply be more like the no gun signs when you go to the grocery store?
