Whether an occasional binger or a daily drinker, a Northeastern student must accept the inherent consequences that accompany drinking. This past weekend, more than 25 NU students were arrested for various alcohol-related crimes. One student was hit over the head with a beer bottle while another was the unfortunate victim of a kick to the head. Others were arrested as a result of a police sting at a local liquor store.
Most students realize an arrest record is serious.
It can incur large court fines and hefty legal bills. Most students, however, don t realize an arrest record will haunt you until the day you die. Every time you apply for a job, you will have to disclose the arrest. It can have other negative consequences as well. In a public urination arrest you will be placed on the state s Sexual Offender List forcing you to notify members in your community of your status.
