A few weeks ago hundreds of ODU students rushed into the library to party as part of a quickly organized flash mob.

Add it to their tuition
Since these flash mobs are usually made up of kids from the school don't do anything to try and stop it. Just count up the damage when everything is done and add it to the bill of all the students.
