College Prowler Take
Campus strictness varies a bit since the campus police are entirely different from the Isla Vista Foot Patrol. The campus police patrol campus, but students who aren’t out-of-control or having really loud parties don’t have to worry about them too much. Off campus, the Isla Vista Foot Patrol allows big parties, but as soon as it hits midnight, and they see kegs in plain view or a foot hits the sidewalk while holding an open container, they become very strict. IVFP are also known for writing tickets for biking under the influence, being a minor in possession, or being drunk in public. The University notifies parents of tickets students recieve by sending them a copy in the mail. As far as cheating and plagiarism, some professors are extremely adamant about checking essays and creating multiple copies of tests. Definitely do not attempt to cheat or plagiarize because you will most likely get caught, and depending on your professor, you could face major repercussions. If you take care of yourself and stay in control, you’ll be absolutely fine and never have a run-in with the Foot Patrol or the Campus Conduct Boards.

You can get away with a lot in Isla Vista. The basic rule is that if you’re using common sense, you’ll be fine. They won’t come into a party to break it up unless it’s causing a huge disturbance or if they see trouble brewing. |

On campus, the police have it under control. In Isla Vista, the police manage to take care of the scary stuff and let the fun stuff happen for the most part. But on nights that are notoriously big party nights, I have seen police lining the streets and setting up barricades. |

Umm, it’s all pretty relaxed. You can get away with a lot, within reason. |

Well, the campus police aren’t the ones you really have to watch out for. The Isla Vista Foot Patrol roams around at night during the party scene and are incredibly strict about people walking around with alcohol and walking around drunk. But it really isn’t a big deal; you just have to know how to handle yourself, and then you’re fine. |

As long as you don’t do anything really stupid, you’ll be fine. I’m not sure what the policies are exactly, but where you really need to worry is in Isla Vista because they have their own deputies and they commonly arrest people or give them citations for being drunk in public, biking or driving under the influence, minors in possession of drugs or alcohol, and urinating in public. |
