"The police will not face the slightest consequences for their actions."

At this point in time, you cannot be certain of that. Conduct unbecoming in the line of duty for police officers can have adverse consequences:

"The Canton Repositoryis reporting that notorious Canton Police Officer Daniel Harless, who was fired after being caught on his own police dash cam video last June verbally assaulting a concealed carry license holder and threatening to “execute” him, is trying to get his job back.

Even if the college President and the Police Chief support the officers, they can still be successfully sued as individuals for violating someone's civil rights. When an officer knowlingly does something outside the scope of his duties he can be successfully sued and/or prosecuted.

Of course I can't be certain of the future, no one can. But if I were offering odds based on overwhelming evidence from previous abuses around the country, I'd say the smart money would bet on their getting away without any personal negative consequences.
