College Prowler Take
There was a time when the UT Police were rather lax, but times have changed. Receiving the title “biggest party school” has been a blessing, as well as a curse, in that strictness has definitely increased. There are more police on campus, and they are more than willing to seek out those who are causing trouble. There is a certain level of liability connected with a campus of UT’s size, and they are heavily pressured by administration to make UT a safer campus. Most students will say that with a school of UT’s size, it is impossible to totally regulate drinking. The campus police know that if they sought out and punished every crime that was committed, their lives would be those of endless headaches, paperwork, and sleepless nights. As long as UT does not enlist the help of Batman, Spiderman, and Superman to fight campus crime, parties and drinking will inevitably ensue. As long as you are smart about having a good time by knowing your limits, obeying and respecting the law, and staying quiet (a lot of big busts begin as noise violations) you will never come face-to-face with Johnny Law. Be aware of campus rules and policies about alcohol. They are rather strict, and knowledge of the rules might keep you out of trouble.

Police are pretty strict, but if you are smart and sneaky about things, you can get away with a lot. At parties, as long as things are in a cup, and there isn’t anything like a can sitting out, they can’t do a thing. |

Police are pretty strict if they actually know about what you’re doing. Most of the time, it is hard for them to track all the students we have on campus. There are lots of people, but that only means more people to make friends with. The best idea is not to take anything into a dorm room. If you are caught, it’s hell. |

The campus police are very strict about their drug policies. They will arrest and kick out people who are caught with drugs. However, the campus police rarely find anyone who is dumb enough to do drugs in front of them. The drinking enforcement is a joke, except for inside the dorms. RAs will search and hunt day and night to find anyone with alcohol in the dorms. The campus police concentrate their efforts on the fraternities to snuff out all of their drinking. |

UT is dry campus, so there is no liquor allowed in the dorms or on any UT property, regardless of your age. They are constantly arresting students on the Strip for being publicly intoxicated. |

The cops have came up with some clever law enforcement tactics in the last few years. They will strategically set up speed traps along some of the longer roads on campus and will have cops inside popular late-night eateries. |
