Strictness at Columbia
I personally am biased against this question about campus strictness because of a few bad experiences I have had with the judicial affairs office. Most of the RAs are really chill and do not mind drinking at all, even noise is excused. However, there are the occasional strict as shit RAs, such as the 5th floor carman RA this year.... The judicial affairs office is run by a few people that just hate kids apparently, they constantly have meetings for small offenses, such as drinking in dorms. They hate when rooms get written up with beer pong tables and hate kegs so much, so maybe thats why they were extra douche-y to me when I got written up. They usually start with a warning only, but weed they take pretty seriously, which is unfortunate when you come from california where it is essentially legal... The police don't do s*** though, its just the RAs that you have to worry about, so its not that bad if you are smart about parties.
