University of Utah
- Campus Strictness

Quick Stats

Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

The U has a strict zero-tolerance policy toward alcohol on campus and in the dorms. But because most alcohol-related incidents are simply alcohol-related and don’t result in vandalism, sexual assault, theft, or other crimes, cops and U administrators are content to look the other way most of the time. But heaven help you if your drunkenness leads you to make a public nuisance of yourself, or you even just bother your neighbors; cops pay a lot of attention to parties on Greek Row, where complaints from the neighbors about noisy parties have created an atmosphere of distrust and resentment.

When it comes to campus strictness, the so-called “Parking Nazis” are at the top of the list of villains. If you go 10 seconds over on your parking meter or your parking pass is not visible, expect a ticket. If it’s your third unpaid ticket, expect to be booted.

No Leniency

You will recieve almost no warning before being punished for doing something that you wouldn't think would be against the rules, the RA's in the housing department are overly strict, and act more like babysitters than advisors.

Usually Lenient Except for Drinking Offenses

Because the U is a dry campus, punishments for drinking on or near campus are much more severe than they would be downtown or at another school.

University Protocol

The current university regulations are justified on several grounds. Constables sometimes patrol the occasional classroom corridor to ensure student safety or to investigate possible dealings with drugs or alcohol, but generally such precautions are warranted.
