Name the last time a caucasian was killed while cops were serving a warrant or arresting said caucasian for a nonviolent crime. I'll wait.
Here are the University budgets.... go have at it. http://finance.umn.edu/budget_anops.html Hint: No line item for paying the local police departments in a budget that has just about every line item imaginable. And yet at Alabama and Penn State and many other universities the local tax payers are bearing the expense, not the university Let's take a look at Alabama... Tuscaloosa taxpayers spend $500,000 a year to police Tide football because Bama doesn't have to https://www.sbnation.com/college-fo...-football-tuscaloosa-police-overtime-spending
Yeah.... Alabama signs "Contracts" to have the local police present at games and events also. The university does not pay a dime.
Lets take a look During the Tide's 2009 national championship season, TPD spent $430,396.20 for 11,035.8 hours of overtime to work seven games, according to documents. So the Minnesota cops are losing hundreds of thousands of dollars in easy overtime pay.You think that makes them gleeful?
And as note the city and taxpayers paid the money -- not the university. The cops are not losing out on the pay -- it is not being paid by the university.
Did you even read your own article? 5. It's normal for a major football program to use off-campus police ... if it pays them. Alabama isn't alone when it comes to non-campus law enforcement working game days. The difference, at least in the Southeastern Conference, is that Alabama's the only one not paying for it. In January, the Baton Rouge Police Department invoiced LSU for $355,320 for policing seven home games at 102,321-seat Tiger Stadium in 2014, according to documents received by SB Nation. Georgia receives monthly invoices from the Athens-Clarke County Police Department for "on-campus and post-event traffic patrols" at 92,746-seat Sanford Stadium. UGA provided SB Nation a paid invoice that claims $45,048.19 for four home games' work in 2014. The College Station Police Department confirmed Texas A&M does reimburse for on-campus policing on game days and provided SB Nation with a payroll summary that claims $34,858.57 for the 2014 season. The Columbia Police Department provided SB Nation a reimbursed invoice that claims $10,080 for policing on campus during the 2014 Missouri football season. The Lexington Police Department provided SB Nation a reimbursed invoice that claims $32,304.98 for the same for time frame for Kentucky. South Carolina and Tennessee stated that they contract local and regional law enforcement as temporary university employees for game day policing. The Starkville (Miss.) Police Department confirmed the same structure with Mississippi State. At Auburn, the campus and city police forces are one. A spokesperson for the Nashville Metro Police Department stated that they do not work Vanderbilt football games. Local police departments for Florida (Gainesville), Ole Miss (Oxford) and Arkansas (Fayetteville) confirmed they receive reimbursement for officers working in stadium and on-campus. Ole Miss also confirmed that the university police department employs off-campus police at an hourly rate on game days. No other SEC program receiving outside police or emergency services on campus and/or in its stadium during football game days operated without a form of compensation, according to documents received in our reporting.
Yes... and this is the problem in college (and pro) sports. Some universities pay for the policing and others do not. This causes lots of complaints from tax payers in cities/towns that need to cover paying for policing for university events.
At many universities -- the local city has to cover the pay and not the university. That is the problem.
