The late night walks are primarily why I would carry. Being able to make a difference in protecting my students or research mates is also important.
I would lean on pocket carry if I were you. It should be comfortable all day, and should accommodate a number of different pistols and revolvers that would do the job. And it's particularly well-suited for after-dark walks--you can have your hand on the gun well before a potential threat becomes an overt one.

Can it print? Sure, but a decent pocket holster conceals the shape of the gun. Check out Lobo Gun Leather. I've also heard nice things said about Mika Holsters. A revolver's rounded butt is a little more print-friendly as well.
