Good to know your taking school serious and doing something that interests you. Your school cool with knives on campus? If they are I'm sure all the reports of people whipping them out in class will change things.

We live in society and sometimes that means respecting other people. It may be legal, it may be your right, it may be fun and it may be some anxiety relief but that DOESN'T make it right. Maybe you hate when people clip their nails in public but they can even if it bothers you. Maybe you are offended by a breast feeding mother but that's her choice to make. I would argue feeding a baby is different than playing with your knife but it's a point I'm making. Things can be done in a way as to minimize bothering others. The mother doesn't have to feed at a town square or busy community center. At work, if your fellow workers aren't bothered by the constant clicking, then go for it. At home, that's your castle, so go for it. Walking down a sidewalk or in a store it just stupid. If public knife flickers annoy enough people then laws might change.
One thing is for sure though. Grandpa and dad didn't whip out a 4" one hand opening "tac ta cool" blades in public unless there was an obvious purpose. I'm of the younger crowd but just don't get most of my peers. If you think it's fine to whip out your blade any time any place, then please visit the police station or court house enjoying that smooth action on your sweet knife.
