Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

The Department of Public Safety and Eugene Police Department have gone through periods of both relaxed policies and rigid ones, but they seem to have finally found a reasonable medium. Dorm infractions are punished very gently, but some police officers will readily issues citations for MIPs (Minors in Possession of alcohol) and break up parties, For big parties, police will usually let the crowd leave and just write up the owner or facilitator; smaller parties aren’t always so lucky, and it’s not uncommon for underage drinkers to get busted at these.

On the drug side of the issue, authorities are often much calmer with marijuana because they understand its regularity (and it doesn’t tend to contribute to large gatherings and riots). Concerning harder substances, however, punishment depends on the individual officer and the atmosphere of the situation. Don’t be surprised to hear about strict enforcement, as authorities have stated that they won’t tolerate drug abuse on or around campus—but don’t be surprised if you can get away with it, either.

Department of Public Safety Is Doing Their Job.

The Department of Public Safety ensures the campus to be a safe place for all students. They also enforce any events that go against the law, such as underage drinking or the use of illegal substances. For the time that I have been there, they have done a pretty decent job of keeping up with their duties.

Police and Some Ridiculous Safety Faculty

Some RA's and housing managers are so ridiculously out of hand with writing people up for the stupidest things. You get treated like a little kid. Police is pretty strict and you will get caught if you are walking around with an open container the majority of the time. I hate having a dry campus.
