I am really curious as to which statute requires the bolded part above? If there is a statute that requires it, would the gun in the trunk and the ammo in the glovebox be OK?

If you're driving through somewhere like Illinois which is currently very anti-gunrights, or you are driving without a CCW permit, this is the prefered method of transportation. And yes, ammo in the glove box and gun in the trunk is fine. They just really want to be sure that the weapon is "not readily accessible to fire".
If you are a student, you may have to go to your University Police Department to get clearance from them and be sure you are in good standing sometime durring the application process. So, be sure that's all in order once you start as well. Personally, I'd just go to the sherrif's office and ask them. No harm in that at all, and you'll probably get a difinitive answer.
