<p>^“The security on campus with regards to partying and stuff seems a little bit too lax”</p>
<p>Wrong! Don’t believe any of the falsehoods concocted by OP intparent in postings #'s 47, 54 & 56 above.</p>
<p>For example in #47 OP claims:
“Campus paper listed all campus police calls over a couple of months, and it was one big cat & mouse game regarding smelling pot/not finding or confiscating anything. Like, a call every few days. Administration may SAY they are taking action, but this was evidence that nothing concrete is happening.”</p>
<p>There are NO LISTINGS like this in the campus paper. It is shear fabrication. Who would read or publish a newspaper with listings of calls reporting pot was smelled? The campus is patrolled by security officers called Community Safety Officers (“CSOs”) who issue violations of drug and alcohol laws and college policies.</p>
<p>“Clery Act” crime statistics reporting is listed here: [Reed</a> College | Community Safety | Crime Statistics](<a href=“http://www.reed.edu/community_safety/crime/crime_statistics.html]Reed”>http://www.reed.edu/community_safety/crime/crime_statistics.html) The report also includes disciplinary referrals for drug and alcohol violations. In 2011, college security officers issued 165 drug violations and 73 liquor violations, where there is amnesty for those needing medical assistance. Minor marijuana and liquor violations on campus are handled internally as disciplinary actions, but anything involving drug felonies is referred to local police. This is pursuant to the following agreement with the city police department: <a href=“http://www.reed.edu/community_safety/informationpolicies/PartnershipAgreement%20PPB%2008212012.pdf[/url]”>http://www.reed.edu/community_safety/informationpolicies/PartnershipAgreement%20PPB%2008212012.pdf</a></p>
<p>The college’s paper DID have an article about the arrest of two students where 2-3 pounds of marijuana was seized on campus. [Student</a> Arrest Sparks Outrage - The Quest | The Free Press of Reed College](<a href=“http://www.reedquest.org/2012/02/student-arrest-sparks-outrage/]Student”>http://www.reedquest.org/2012/02/student-arrest-sparks-outrage/). Clearly there is NO “one big cat & mouse game regarding smelling pot/not finding or confiscating anything.” This characterization is wholly based on the contrivances of an overprotective mother OP, who is plainly ignorant of this college. Anyone who believes that the college is permissive either of drugs or alcohol or is a party school should go elsewhere.</p>
