Sneaking pets into College Dorm

[cobrat]

<p>

Good question, Hunt. Rules against underaged drinking come to mind. Universities essentially acknowledge that those rules will not be strictly enforced by offering substance free housing. My sense is, though, based on no data whatsoever, that the rules against pets are more strictly enforced. But you are right to pose the question.

<p>Probably because it’s easier to detect whether someone’s sneaking in a pet from the noise/smells they emit than someone sneaking in alcohol which could be hidden much more easily. Especially by someone who doesn’t draw attention to him/herself. </p>

<p>Pets could also escape from the dormroom and be seen by others as was the case with a friend’s chinchilla.</p>
