Violations of the rules and regulations and minor infractions are dealt with by the staff. Areas of concern to us have been the consumption of alcoholic beverages, smoking, use of illegal drugs, and creating false fire alarms. The consumption of alcoholic beverages is prohibited, and smoking is allowed only in designated areas. Students that violate this policy are afforded one warning. On the second offense, they are removed from housing.
Students using illegal drugs receive no second chances.
They are evicted immediately and subject to prosecution by local law enforcement agencies. Individuals who create a false fire alarm are prosecuted for falsely reporting an incident. Since June 1999, we have had about 6 false fire alarms. Fifty percent of these individuals were caught and prosecuted. We are extremely concerned about false fire alarms and have made it clear to students that false fire alarms will be investigated by the fire department and the Sheriff's department and prosecuted accordingly.
