Get ready for a big weekend at South Carolina State University! The Bulldogs will face Delaware State, and students are thrilled. Junior Kimora Aiken is especially excited because hip-hop artist JT will be the musical guest. She's eager to see alumni too.

The university expects a crowd of 30, 000 to 40, 000 people, including alumni, students, family, and friends. Chief Richard Johnson, SC State's campus police chief, says safety is the top priority. He wants to prevent any unwanted incidents, so they're being proactive.

This year, SC State will have 150 law enforcement officers and security personnel on campus. They'll also use a gun-sniffing dog and new weapon detectors. These detectors use artificial intelligence to detect guns, similar to TSA technology at airports. They were introduced at the last home game.

Students hope for a fun and safe weekend. Aiken prays for safety every morning. Miles also hopes nothing goes wrong and that all events run smoothly. Both students are excited about new IDs that add an extra layer of security, especially at events like the concert.
