Purdue's Student Bill of Rights

I was pursuing through Purdue's Student Bill of Rights, and a few things caught my attention. Article 18 and 19 seem to explicitly provide protections against Constitutional infringement by university policies.

Purdue's Student Bill of Rights
...
Article 18
It is the right of every student to exercise freely full rights as a citizen. Any student may participate in off-campus activities singly or with any group provided that no claim is made that the student represents the University.

...

Article 19
This Bill of Student Rights is a reaffirmation by the entire University community that the constitutional guarantees and the basic principles of fair treatment and respect for the integrity, judgment, and contribution of the individual student, coinciding with each student's freedom to learn set forth in the foregoing articles, are essential to the proper operation of an institution of higher learning. Accordingly, in the interpretation and enforcement of the policies, rules, and regulations of Purdue University, these student rights shall be preserved and given effect, but they shall not be construed or applied so as to limit the rights guaranteed students under the Constitution of the United States or the Constitution of the state of Indiana.

Indiana's State Constitution
...
Article 1, Section 32
The people shall have a right to bear arms, for the defense of themselves and the State.

What are everybody's thoughts on this? It seems like their blanket no weapons policy is in violation of their own internal bill of rights?

doesnt the bill of rights also talk about arms carring is prohibited too? i may be mistaken.

Purdue's bill of rights never mentions arms or weapons

What force of law/school policy does this "Bill of Student Rights" have? The Constitutions of the state of Indiana and for the United States of America are foundational documents. All laws, regulations, rules, and policies must be maintained in conformance with those Constitutions.

Purdue University is founded by… what? I think it would be termed a charter. Does that charter make any reference to a "Bill of Student Rights"? If the answer is yes, does it give those "Rights" any weight of university policy? Is that weight over arching, or can they be ignored with impugnity?
