It sure looks like a sure case of two wrongs not making a right.

The student was being an arrogant pig-headed moron for not just following the rules and either showing his ID or leaving, while the campus cops were also bloody morons for letting a situation like that go on for that long.

As an officer you should only resort to the use of force to end a dangerous situation. I don't know that this situation called for the use of force, but you sure as hell don't taser, back off, taser, back off etc... If as an officer your choice is the use of force then you taser until he can't move cuff him and drag his ass out.
