I'm not sure that will fly either. Allowing professors to choose to make their offices off-limits would give legal authority to professors that the statute reserves exclusively to the president and board of regents.

Second, TGC § 411.2031(d-1) requires the university to
give “effective notice under Section 30.06, Penal Code,
with respect to any portion of a premises on which license
holders may not carry.” TPC § 30.06 in turn provides that
notice may be given by oral or written communication.
Written communication may take either of two forms. It
may be given individually on a card or document or more
generally through posted signage. Either way, TPC § 30.06
prescribes the precise language the written notice must
contain:
“Pursuant to Section 30.06, Penal Code
(trespass by license holder with a concealed
handgun), a person licensed under Subchapter H,
Chapter 411, Government Code (handgun licensing
law), may not enter this property with
a concealed handgun.” TPC § 30.06(c)(3)(A).
For posted signs, this language must appear in both
English and Spanish, in block letters at least one inch
high. The Working Group did a mock-up of this statutorilymandated
signage and determined that these signs will
have to be at least two feet by three feet in dimension.

I thought government entities weren't legally capable of posting a 30.06 notice? Are they errant in publishing this in their findings?

What if they ask the professors that want it to tell them. Then when they put everything into place they just list that room as one of the many other places. Like you wouldn't say Professor McMillan's office. They could just say Building X Room XXXX is a no carry room. Then I assume they could resubmit plans to the legislature for review every two years to change that as needed. I'm not saying I support it or that I like it. Just a way I see to get it done.
