This is the problem, and I'm afraid there is no solution other than riding a cheap beater bike on campus. I've had two bikes stolen in my lifetime, and both of them were stolen when I was in school. Bicycle theft was so rampant and blatant that, in one case, an entire bike rack with a dozen or so locked bicycles was simply loaded into a large truck with a liftgate and driven away.

There was this guy running classes on a cervelo S2 the other day on campus. How would I know? He was not wearing a single piece of lycra and had a backpack.
