College Prowler Take
Students agree that you can basically drink as much as you want around Notre Dame and have little to worry about from campus authorities. At worst, the consequences will be about as severe as a slap on the wrist. On the other end of the spectrum, however, the penalties for both drug use and sex on campus are expulsion. Most students didn’t complain about the University’s priorities, though they are noticeably different from many other schools. The bottom line? Drink if you like, but don’t use drugs or get caught fooling around. The lenient alcohol policy leaves plenty of room for students to have fun; however, there are hefty fines for overindulgence. Students are expected to be responsible, and there is supervision—if you can’t keep things behind closed doors, you will get in trouble for it. Make sure you consider the consequences before you do anything on campus. Don’t push things too far and you should be just fine.

Drinking is very common on campus,...
Drinking is very common on campus, but there is definitely no peer pressure to drink. People are totally okay with a sober person at a party. Students party only on Friday and Saturday nights and on St. Patrick's day. A select few party Thursday nights. Girl's dorms are VERY strict about drinking. RAs will not come looking in rooms for alcohol, but if you are stupid and leave a door open as an RA walks by, you WILL get in trouble. On the other hand, boy's dorms are very lenient. Some are so lenient that RAs drink with the other students. In general, the school embraces its title as the school of the fighting Irish. Teachers and students alike are comfortable conversing about and boasting about their drinking extravaganzas. (If you want the experience of a lifetime, visit on St. Patrick's Day. Any student who drinks alcohol will most definitely be drunk from the moment he/she wakes up, probably through class the next day!)
As for drugs, they are not widely used at all. and many students look down upon drug use. On the other hand, I have known boys to smoke weed in their rooms or right outside their dorm. Not to say this is smart, but it makes a tiny presence on campus. The other issue is sex on campus. I must say that sex is probably no where near as casual or as widespread as it is on a typical college campus. Because of the Catholic morals of so many of the students, sex can be judged harshly by some. Of course people have sex here, but it isn't something girls brag about, and guys not as much either. Getting caught breaking parietals is a big deal—you don't want this to happen. Despite the sever consequences, people do it all the time. You just have to be very sneaky (especially in girls' dorms).

Getting caught with drugs means...
Getting caught with drugs means immediate expulsion. Drinking isn’t taken as seriously as drugs, unless you’re stupidly drunk and falling all over. The only advice I have is to not get that drunk and campus police won’t bother you. Being the most famous of Catholic institutions, and therefore the strictest, getting caught having sex on campus will get you kicked off campus. Be smart and cautious if you’re ever going to fool around. |

The drinking policy on campus is pretty lenient. In a way, it teaches you to be responsible in a safe environment. However, the drug policy is very strict. There’s really no reason to worry. |

Drinking is allowed in dorm rooms, but drugs will get you kicked out of school. There’s a lot of drug use going on off campus, though, and no one gets caught. Even if you’re only 18, if you live in the dorms, you are allowed to drink without any worries about being punished. |
