I know that Virginia has a 1-person consent law to recording: § 19.2-62.2
"2. It shall not be a criminal offense under this chapter for a person to intercept a wire, electronic or oral communication, where such person is a party to the communication or one of the parties to the communication has given prior consent to such interception."
And I know this has nothing to do with open carry. But my professor at GMU told me today i could not record him giving us questions for a video (voice recording) because it is illegal to record and he can go to the GMU lawyers and sue anyone that does this. I know GMU is a state institution and should follow state laws, but then again they have their own exception in our VA codes not allowing lawful gun owners to carry inside of academic buildings. Does anyone know if there is a different law that does not allow us to record professors? Thanks!
