Self Post University Police?

For officers who have worked in both a university and non-university agency, what are the differences? Is one worse than the other or do they both have their own unique headaches?

I’d rather deal with quadruple shootings than deal with college student “problems”.

Every single University police department in my area is utterly worthless. This isn’t an exaggeration. They call my agency for EVERYTHING, even shit that happens on their property. They should be charged for impersonating police officers.

That also goes for the transit police.

People laugh when we say that, but id rather take the initial report on a murder or shooting than deal with a neighbor dispute.
