    Private police forces seem like an egregious overreach in some sense, but I know every university campus has them too. I guess there should just be judicial oversight on such bodies

      in my experience, the state colleges are literal cops and are not private: they are literally the same as city police, with all the privileges and power that comes with it, which makes them subject to the same oversight.

      you’re probably right about private colleges though.
