In what might be the 21st century's most thrilling mystery, campus police are neck-deep in soul-searching over an event security question: How much security is just enough security? Details on whether this involves 3 officers, 20 officers, or a covert team of undercover baristas are still classified. The campus, known for hosting the annual "Is This Overkill?" festival, faces its police conundrum amid increasing pressure from students who want fun, not a Tactical Ops 101 drill. Officials continue to weigh if swat gear at the bake sale is a little much or exactly right in 2024. Spoiler alert: no popcorn stands harmed in this debate.
