Live On, University

Live On, University

College towns are so idyllic. The ivy-covered buildings, tree-lined streets, students walking to and fro. Oh, and the wild parties, tailgaiting and houses crammed with kids looking for cheap off-campus  housing...

If you live in said towns, the arrival of students in the fall means noise, trash and a host of other issues. If you're a student, you should probably know that campus security may be watching you when you're not on school grounds.  A number of universities have begun letting students know that the campus code of conduct extends to off campus activities—meaning that you can't just step off school property and go wild.

Where are you headed to school this fall? Tell us what your campus policy is, and whether you think town-gown relations are helped by university police stepping in. [AP]

Well, the last presidential debates are going to be at my school (woop! woop!), so the secret service has supposedly been on campus for months now! I'm not exactly sure what our public safety is doing to ensure the safety of students, but I know that it's their number one priorety being that obama and mccain will be here. I just hope they keep the tight sercurity even after the debate is over.
