College Prowler Take
The DU “police” are not to be feared. Usually, offenses don’t end up tarnishing your school record or emptying your wallet. You might get a few slaps on the hand, unless the offense is something more serious, such as driving drunk or selling drugs on campus. RAs do their best to keep things quiet and relatively under control in the dorms, and as long as you don’t blare your music too loud or get sloshed in your room, most likely you won’t incur any serious run-ins. Probably the biggest no-no on DU’s campus is drinking in the dorms, considering DU markets itself as a dry campus. In their job description, RAs are required to inform the administration of any and all names of students caught drinking or doing drugs in the dorms, so be careful. Although you probably won’t get suspended or expelled on the first account, mounting charges could equate to more serious penalties.

They are very strict about pot, but not so much with everything else. It seems random people get picked to go to detox, but they can't get everyone who's drunk. First time offenders get a letter home and a blemish on their record, and they must attend a class. Second offenders get put on probation and third offenders get expelled. Very few people get caught for drugs and maybe 10 go to detox every year. In the dorms, it also depends on who your RA is. Some will write you up and some let you get away with just about anything.

If you live in the dorms, and you have to for two years, you have an extremely high chance of getting caught drinking, doing drugs, etc., if you are into those things. Once you leave the dorms, though, there is little chance of getting caught doing anything just because there are no RAs checking up on you every five minutes. Living in the dorms is an essential experience in college, but by the time you're knee-deep in sophomore year, there is nothing too exciting about dorm life.

In the dorms, they are strict. If you are caught drinking or doing drugs a certain amount of times, you will be either suspended or expelled from the University. But other than that, you don’t really see security on campus. Be smart about stuff, and you won’t need to worry. |

I think the RAs are probably the strictest bunch around campus. They make sure nothing shady is going on in the dorms. One of my friends got busted for drinking in his room, and he got in pretty big trouble. Just don’t do anything stupid like that, and you’ll be okay. The rules are laid out pretty clearly once you get on campus. |

My friends and I call Campus Police ‘pretend-a-cops.’ They don’t have a whole lot of power, but they act like they do. They drive around in their big SUVs and look important. I’d be much more intimidated if I got caught doing something by the police, or some other legal authority with real power to punish me. |
