The Dean of
Students office is partnering with the Tucson Police Department (TPD)
and initiated a pilot program that began in January
2007 to educate UA students about responsible behavior
within the Tucson community. The focus of this program
is to respond to issues related to off-campus parties
where there is a clear nexus to the university community.
In keeping with the jurisdiction of the Student Code
of Conduct, the program is designed to decrease extreme
misbehavior by university students in the Tucson community.
In order to
participate in the program, the host(s) of the party
must receive a red tag citation from the TPD related
to service of alcohol to underage persons, sale or distribution
of drugs, or violence. The TPD has agreed to forward
the red tag reports to the Dean of Students office.
The reports will be reviewed by the
Dean
of Students office to confirm that:
the host(s) of the party is a UA
student
other UA students attended the party,
and;
there is a clear nexus to The University
of Arizona
Students will
either receive a letter of warning or participate in
an educational process consistent with established Student
Code of Conduct proceedings. Students will have an opportunity
to discuss the incident and participate in a fact finding
investigation which could result in educational sanctions.
