What is the problem with WSUPD patrolling the campus and surrounding area?

WSU has buildings all over the Cass Corridor, Medical Center, and other areas in Midtown, in addition to a significant student population living in non-university-owned housing in these areas. It is quite common for state universities to patrol areas on and around their campuses.

WSUPD isn't diverting any funding away from the DPD, or the city of Detroit, and the off-campus police support provided by the WSUPD helps to free up DPD patrol resources to be redeployed into other areas of the city.

There are a number of posts on this thread that seem to suggest that the WSU policing around campus somehow isn't fair, or is some kind of misuse of tax dollars, but I fail to see the reasoning behind this sentiment.
