If you are allowed to bring it indoors and store it in your office, that is always the safest best. Mine was stolen while locked to a bike rack at the university I teach at, but they have a no bikes indoor rule even though I have a private office I could store it in....... I also bring it into the restroom with me if I am out riding alone......... Also, be aware, lleaving a locked bike overnight also increases probablity of theft (my daughter lost one this way at school...).
