Take it inside...I have seen purses and backpacks dragged inside that are larger than a folded Brompton. Or as been suggested get a beater bike to lock outside on the campus. I know several people that have multiple beaters that they keep locked up in different locations for convenience. I have yet to find out what happens if you get to a location and your beater is gone or vandalized...
