Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Campus strictness is kind of a mixed bag. You can get away with a lot, but not murder (or growing pot in your room). LSU is usually looking out for underage drinkers on campus, except during football game days, and most of the dorms don’t allow alcohol. Students in the on-campus apartments have less restrictions, but if you are living in a dorm, you have to obide by their rules. RAs will search your room, so it’s important to make sure your coffee pots, booze, and anything else illegal is locked away when you are not around. Campus Strictness depends completely on where you end up living. People in the Pentagon throw keg parties on the weekend without having any problems, while student in West Laville have to write essays if they are caught with a hot plate. Check out the on-campus housing section for more information on each dorm’s reputation.

Game day tends to be the most conflicting day for students in run ins with campus police. Some cops allow students to run wild on LSU game days, while others are looking to hand out as many MIPs as possible. However, it’s still hard to use the word “strict” when the entire campus has been turned into party grounds. For off-campus students, the major quip was with DUIs. If you are driving drunk in Baton Rouge, you will get caught. But you should always designate a driver for personal safety.

Whatever It Takes

The strictness of LSU is great to me. I think in order to have a safe learning environment, certain precuations should always be taken to ensure the safety of all the students. Disciplinary action at LSU is taken very seriously, as it should be. The strictness at LSU comforts many of the students by giving them the knowledge that every measure is being taken to ensure their safety.

Policies Are About Right

Most professors are pretty laid back, but they do expect you to show up for class.

Residential Assistants Are Snitches

Residential Assistants are generally strict in most dorms, but a few are more relaxed in other dorms. Some residential assistants allow certain students to get away with underage drinking and drug use, but most call the police as soon as possible. More residential assistants should give out warnings instead of immediate and extreme punishments. The campus police department is always at any large events on campus, but sometimes they stop the students from having fun just because they think the crowd is too large.
