Yeah, ride. It's why you have it, isn't it?

Also:
If there's a bike rack near a main entrance, it's probably in view of a camera too, if that makes you feel better. One further, it won't hurt to get to know the security folks. (I'm assuming you're talking college, here.) I take 'em coffee and bagels occasionally. Not only is it decent karma, they know me, they know my bike, and one of them even now takes smoke breaks near the rack.

Maybe it helps, maybe it doesn't, but hey, nobody's life was ever made worse, nor have the chances of a bike being stolen ever gone up, because security likes you.
