Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Overall, campus strictness is pretty average on campus. However, the University has some weird rules. A freshman who lives more than 50 miles away from campus is required to live on campus in a dorm. Because so many students live outside of the Boca Raton region, this has caused an influx of students living on campus, which in turn has caused some cramping.

In terms of drug abuse violations on campus, after one violation, a student is suspended from student housing, is on probation for a year, and has to complete mandatory evaluation and counseling. After a second violation, a student has to complete 50 hours of community service, is suspended for one year, and has to complete an educational program in addition to paying a fine for the administrative costs for providing the program.

Consequences Will Be Given.

On campus you will always see police cars driving around or giving out tickets. If theres a problem in dorm rooms there is always someone in attendance to handle the situation. In parking lots there are emergency booths to call for help when needed. There are fire drills at amytime during the day for students whom live on campus just to ensure safety and there a clinic for anyone in need of a nusre or doctor. Rule are rules and if any student breaks them they will have consequences, such as parking ticket, suspension off campus, warnings and etc.

Parking

Parking can be very strict especially if you're parking without a sticker. Boots on cars are strongly enforced especially if tickets aren't payed after two weeks, I believe.
