So i went detecting on campus again. This time though the campus security guy came over ( nice guy...know him personally) said that he got a call from someone that report suspicious activity....which was me digging in the ground 
He told me i should talk to the dean to make sure its ok dig behind the building i was at, because it was an old burial ground.
I had only been out like 15 mins, was really dissapointed and annoyed. But we chatted about my finds and i let him look over my machine and fielded some wuestions about what it could do...he wished me luck and i walked on back to my dorm.
Funny thing about the spot is that originally it was an indian burial ground. then the pioneers buried over it....then the school built on top of both of them. To the point that there are litterally bones sticking out of the dirt foundation inside the basement of the building. Somehow i doubt my digging a foot down is going to matter.....but i will of course go and get written permission.
Interesting, disapointing day, but i learned i need to get things writtien down....plus no harm came of it.
