What are you actually trying to accomplish here? I could tell you how to
loop through a list in a string and run a query for each number, but I'd
have the horrible feeling that you're using some inefficient method to
accomplish something.

For instance, if you're just trying to select data matching the numbers in
your list, you can do this:

$query = "SELECT * FROM Table WHERE campus_list IN
({$_SESSION['sv_CampusList']})";
