Description

This humorous essay pokes fun at the perceived ineffectiveness of campus police departments, comparing their efforts to those of mall cops or substitute teachers. The writer uses anecdotes of campus police responding to a 'suspicious person' who was simply studying and issuing parking tickets for minor infractions to highlight the disconnect between their perceived duties and their actions. The piece is written in a lighthearted and satirical tone, emphasizing the absurdity of campus police's sometimes overzealous and seemingly unnecessary interventions. Ultimately, it presents a playful critique of the often-unappreciated and sometimes misguided role of campus security personnel. Comparable works include David Sedaris
