College Prowler Take
Over the years, UD has become more involved in its students’ recreational activities. They have been awarded numerous grants for the prevention of underage drinking, and they seem to be a bit obsessed at times. If you are smart and careful, you should get along just fine, but alcohol does tend to dull your inhibitions, leading to displays of drunkenness. This can possibly result in a strike and alcohol responsibility classes, or even arrest and expulsion. There have been complaints that UD Police are so worried about catching underage drinkers that they aren’t actually protecting students. UD’s main goal with all of these policies is to show students that this school is no longer a party school and they won’t tolerate anything that will tarnish their new, serious image. Breaking the rules can have serious consequences, but most people find that if you are responsible, and use a little bit of common sense, you can have fun and avoid getting in trouble.

They are cops—they don’t like when you drink, do drugs, and break laws. Just don’t be a moron, and you will be fine. |

The campus policies and police are very strict on drugs and alcohol. They are trying to get rid of the image they had as a party school. The problem is that they spend so much time trying to stop underage drinking that they ignore other important issues and become lax on general campus safety. Moreover, they are fighting a losing battle because there isn’t much else to do in Newark but get drunk. You can’t stop people from drinking if there isn’t anything else to do. |

I only drink occasionally, but I’ve never had a problem. If you’re on campus, just stay in the room, and don’t be too loud. Most RAs won’t make a big deal about it. It does depend on your RA and where you’re living, though. For example, it’s a lot easier to get away with stuff in the isolation of the Pencador dorms than in others. Policy on drugs seems to be slightly stricter than for alcohol, so if you smoke, do it with caution. Off campus, pretty much anything goes unless your neighbor calls the cops. |

If you’re caught drinking in a dorm, you will get kicked out after three violations of any kind. As for drugs, they report it to the University immediately, and you may have to go up in front of the UD judicial system, or they may just expel you from school. Off campus, you’re dealing with the Newark police, so they’ll deal with it like any other community police. They’ll arrest you for underage drinking or possession. Arrests don’t happen that often, however. |

I’ve never had a problem with the police, but they do tend to bust parties. I don’t think they usually arrest too many people, just those responsible for the party. |
FactsWhat Are You Most Likely to Get Caught Doing on Campus?
- Violating parking regulations—UD could probably fund the entire University with the money collected off of parking tickets.
- Playing loud music or being rowdy in your dorm room
- Downloading music and movies from the Internet
- Stealing books from the bookstore
- Underage drinking
- Theft
