1,051 violate alcohol policy f crN

During the 1984-85 school year, 1,051
people were involved in alcohol-related
incidents in the residence halls, said
Pat Glasier, coordinator of Residential
Education. The Incidents include peo
ple who don't live in the residence
halls, she said.
Sixty-five people were put on proba
tion and two students' residence hall
"contracts were terminated, she said.
The number of incidents filed against
individuals and houses in the Greek
System in 1984 is confidential informa
tion, said Rachel Jensen, secretary for
ureek aiiairs.
The Greek System follows the Code
of Conduct in the Student Handbook,
Jensen said. If Greeks violate the code,
the police file a report which is brought
before the Greek Judicial Board. Greek
houses cannot have alcohol on the
premises, according to UNL's policy.
Jensen said the Interfraternity Coun
cil requires each Greek house to sche
dule two non-alcoholic weekend par
ties each semester or the house will be
fined $250. The money is used for alco
hol awareness programs.
In residence halls, each floor's stu
dent assistant enforces the alcohol pol
icy, said Wendy Steinke, a Sandoz Hall
student assistant.
"I will confront an alcohol violation,
but I won't go look for it," Steinke said,
If she finds someone with alcohol in
the hall, she said, she will write an
incident report. Students caught with
a six-pack or other small amounts of
liquor are warned by an SA or the resi
dence director. Further action depends
upon the case and the individual's
cooperation, she said. People found
with a lot of liquor are automatically
put on probation for a year. If people
are caught on a second major offense,
Steinke said, their housing contracts
can be canceled.
. The UNL police department is not
directly involved in enforcing the uni
versity's alcohol policy said Bob Fey,
crime prevention officer. But. if a dis-
turbance is reported on campus and
the investigating officer finds minors
with alcohol, the police become in
volved, he said.
The police report the alcohol viola
tion to university officials, Fey said.
Police are starting to keep records of
alcohol-related incidents but statistics
before 1985 are not available.
Jayne Wade Anderson, director of
Greek Affairs, said she belives the
alcohol policy works.

"It's university policy and that the
(Greek) judicial system follows through
with the policy shows the integrity of
the system," she said.
However, Steinke disagrees.
"It's a lot to ask someone of drinking
age not to drink in the privacy of their
own places," she said.
Because privacy is enforced, she
said, she doesn't see any way the uni
versity can enforce the no-drinking pol
icy. However, she said, it works as well
as can be expected.
