I’m not that well-versed in US policy for this stuff, but if it’s standard practice why would they lie about it?

Because the first photo is not of snipers, it's observers. When the person who took it asked, that's what they were told.

The second photo is when they saw the actual sniper.

Apparently the issue is people asked the University if there were snipers, at 8:15 pm they replied there weren’t, and later said they deployed them at 10 pm.

More reasonable than what it looked like but still kinda crazy, at least from my outside perspective.
