Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Illegal drugs (marijuana, cocaine, ecstasy) are taken more seriously by campus police than alcohol is. During freshman orientation, students are made aware that drug use is against UNC policy and is not tolerated by campus police. Furthermore, if students are caught possessing marijuana on campus, their housing contract is terminated. If students are caught possessing illegal drugs, they face Carolina’s Honor Court, expulsion, and state court.

Campus police are there to protect and serve UNC’s student body. Rarely do students consider campus police strict or threatening when it comes to alcohol. If students are caught drinking underage in the dorms, then it is possible that their housing contract could be terminated. More often than not, students are written up, possibly fined, and have to complete a certain number of community service hours. Of course, if you are being loud, obnoxious, and causing a scene, you are going to attract attention to yourself. So, if you are participating in underage drinking, be quiet about it, or do it off campus! Otherwise, you might find yourself alongside a Carolina highway picking up garbage.

The Honor System

The campus has recently put together a task to reevaluate our honor system to figure out how to improve it. While some students complain that our system is too strict or unfair because traditional sanctions for a first time offense, if found guilty, is a semester's suspension, UNC is actively trying to improve the Honor Code and how the system is run to better benefit both students and faculty. The university cares.

Not Too Strict

The strictness at UNC is pretty good. Students get leniency and a chance to correct their errors.

Not Too Bad

Parties can get pretty crazy, but you are pretty safe going to frats and don't have to worry too much about cops there - they aren't allowed to go inside and don't do too much. But running around Franklin Street drunk can definitely get you a ticket, so just be smart.
