Some background on this video:
My college sort of an oasis in a ghetto. This side of town was a really nice place when the Uni was founded, but since then it's gone to crap around us. Many of the immediate local residents are dealers/welfare/dropouts/gangstas/failure at life etc. As such, bikes get stolen on campus and weird things happen occasionally. Last semester a guard flipped the security vehicle(a Ridgeline) while chasing some bike thieves through a field. Later some students were down at blockbuster(walking distance) when some whacko tried to hold up the place and took their wallets. The semester before, some random guy in a red SUV rolled onto campus and abducted a student(this ended up fine and wasn't a big of a deal as it sounds).
Most recently, some creep from off-campus entered a girl's dorm at 1AM through a door that was propped open and wandered around, eventually ending up sitting on some girl's bed, touching her hair and stuff. He left and security asked him to leave when they saw him wandering around before they found out what had happened.

Long story short, the security here has a hard time coping with the ghetto that surrounds campus and lots of students give them crap about it, both the stuff that they can do something about and otherwise. Anyway, not to long ago some joker makes this video and sends it to everyone on campus in an email thinly disguised as official. It's been the talk of the campus and is darn hilarious if you know what's happened:

I think this might a "had to be there" moment.

On a more serious note, sounds like your school won't be doing anything until it's too late. Most of the stuff you described is pretty tame. They'll regret it when girls start to get raped like at the big uni's :(.

Yeah, we're getting prox cards, which should keep anything from happening in the dorms, but there's not a whole lot you can do about random people walking around an open campus. I'm not sure what exactly they can do short of hiring a full professional 24/7 staff.

Wow.

I wasn't even at your school for these incidents, but not being too far removed from college and campus security, this nearly made me shit my pants laughing.

The flip out at the end is incredibly well done.

I'm sure there are gun and drug free zone signs around the campus. They should just buy some gun, drug and crime free zone sings. That will take care of the problems.
