East Carolina University - Campus StrictnessCollege Prowler3.08
College Prowler Take
ECU has an extensive list of violations for which students may be fined, but in general, ECU is casual, except in the cases of a few serious offenses. The Student Code of Conduct, called the Cluebook, can be found online at www.ecu.edu/studenthandbook. Of course it is full of legal jargon, but students should scan it, because ignorance and inebriation are not excuses for breaking the rules. Students used to drink underage and smoke pot without much discretion in the dorms, but with the zero-tolerance policy, in addition to legal action, students are required to leave campus housing if they are caught.
Some students used to joke about the horrors of meeting with the “mean dean” about drug law, liquor law, and honor code violations. Lately, though, the Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities has focused on educating students about the impact their actions could have on their academic careers and criminal records rather than concentrating on punishment of bad behavior. Parking and Transportation officers look for ticketing opportunities, but ECU Police, RAs, and counselors have better things to do, like protecting students from themselves and others. Of course, the best way to not get caught is to be quiet. If students want to get caught, they should be loud and stupid when breaking rules. Students Speak Out

It's pretty strict. If you get caught with any drugs, you are kicked out of the dorm, and of ECU. Alcohol is a little less severe.

The campus police are pretty good at getting their jobs done. I feel like they should focus more on sexual assaults than the drinking underage. They seem to harp on that so much, and bad things happen to innocent people. The dorms are pretty good with their regulations and following through with consequences.

Some people think the police are too strict because they cannot just do whatever they want to do on campus. I wouldn’t call ECU strict. Many of the things that campus police are doing are for the good of the students. Helping curb the use of alcohol and drugs is really helping students. Since many new students don’t know how to control themselves in the college environment, some of the new regulations can help them learn control. I see it as helping the young students who have not learned how to act in college. |

Strictness regarding parking is...
Strictness regarding parking is probably the most annoying kind of campus strictness there is at ECU, especially because it all depends on who’s breaking rules and who chooses to catch them. My friend got a ticket one time for something like ignoring painted lines. Is that for real? Then why don’t those giant food service trucks get tickets for taking up two spaces behind Mendenhall? That’s not right. They didn’t pay for the opportunity to park there, especially not in more than one space at the same time. |
