Although Siyonbola showed them her student ID about two minutes after they arrived, it took police more than 15 minutes to verify she was a student and allowed to be in the building. Peart said the encounter was drawn out because of a spelling mix-up, explaining, "The reason it took longer than usual for the student's identification card to be verified was because the name on her card was her preferred name (which we allow students to use) and did not exactly match her name in the university records."
