University of Nevada - Las Vegas - Campus StrictnessCollege Prowler3.85
College Prowler Take
Thanks to relatively low crime rates, UNLV isn’t in dire need of very strict law enforcement. Other than the flood of police at the beginning of the year as students are arriving to school for the first time, you generally don’t encounter UNLV police. Obviously, if you commit a more serious offense, the story might be different. Police response rate is fairly quick at UNLV, and incidences of more serious crimes are usually investigated immediately and resolved quickly. Other than that, the enforcement levels are pretty lax. This, like all things in life, has an exception. Police are known to be there when you least expect it, such as when you’re doing something you’re not supposed to, so don’t think you can do whatever you want on campus. In 2004, a UNLV graduate was arrested for making a speech with his pants down. Though the graduate student claimed his free speech rights were violated, the problem the police had with him wasn’t the speech itself but that he spoke with his pants around his ankles. Things like that don’t escape UNLV police officers’ attention. So, as long as speakers keep their clothes on and do not get violent, the campus strictness is lenient.

The biggest issue when it comes to...
The biggest issue when it comes to drinking and drugs is really if you live on campus. It only takes one offense to get you kicked out, so just be smart. Getting caught drinking underage on campus is definitely not going to be a good thing.

Not sure how strict campus police are about drugs, drinking, and other campus regulations. Never knew anyone that got in trouble, but it's probably best not to do that kind of stuff on campus.

In the five years I’ve been here, I have gotten away with underage drinking and was let go on a DUI, so they must not be too strict. |
