Indeed, at a time the admissions process was advertising MIT's hacks of old, and they were featured in the museum, the administrators changed both the makeup and mission of the campus police.

At one point they claimed, verbatim, that 'preparing and serving potato salad presents a liability to the Institute' when discussing the tradition of students and alumni preparing side dishes together. Potato salad liability... we built a wooden rollercoaster in the courtyard the previous year!
