OK. The scientists were obliged to chose between less individuals or less security. They were hit by a massive budget cut that impacted all academia, but their Institute decided research in Vs and Ws was not that important.

One of the undergrads managed to escape and prevent authorities. Cops and military were sent there. It was a carnage until the same ug manage to explain how to kill them.
