Which he did, because he gave it to her with the express expectation that she'd carry it when she became a journeywoman.

I can't think, offhand, of an off-campus, non-public place big enough...

Different characters, different ways of preferring to do things. Neither Kaitlyn nor Utena like to do things non-aboveboard if they can help it, and they haven't the social or literal firepower to spit into the wind all the time... yet. For now they have to pick their battles.

Besides, exploiting the rules for one's own benefit rather than just ignoring them is a lot more fun, and part of the gweepish tradition. :)
