Punishments Are a BIG DEAL!
The Campus Safety, a.k.a. Public Safety, is usually very lenient when enforcing noise/alcohol/party policy. However, if in case any Non-Senior Dorm is raided, be WARNED you will be booked and have a First-Time Offense with possible probation and possibly affecting any Holy Cross Scholarship status. The school takes underage drinking VERY SERIOUS, so DO NOT GET CAUGHT, and if you do expect severe punishment. Mostly, however, this happens when a dorm party is being TOO LOUD or has more than 10 PEOPLE in a single room. As long as you keep the Music/Noise level to a minimum and not have people showing reckless behavior in public hallways or outside the room you are fine. For those as Seniors, well PARTY ON, most Seniors are around 21 so Public Safety is more lenient. Therefore, have fun, there are SO MANY PARTYS, but be mindful of the people at the party because you don't want to get busted because one person had to be reckless and ruin it for everyone else there. First-time offenders I believe have their parents/guardians notified, and any other continued offense usually means grounds to loosing on-campus housing. Any ACADEMIC policy breaking is VERY SERIOUS! I have rarely heard of the consequences because everyone is sure not to commit academic dishonesty. This is because at every first day of any academic class, the Prof. is sure to warn that academic dishonesty is paid with a big FAT "F" on a transcript and possible academic/scholarship suspension.
