i wouldnt worry about that, anybody exploiting someone with an drug or alcohol problem is a piece of crap anyway, neither is a laughing manner, im sure some of these kids are under extreme pressure but it seems that tcu is doing something positive about it!
Half this board's gone bat-chit crazy, and Rod's being level-headed and supportive. If I were you guys, I'd avoid anyone riding a white horse for the next few days, just to be safe.Rod, quit making sensible posts. I am not used to it and it is making me uncomfortable.
I've been a staff member for over ten years.Is true. Saw it with my own eyes.

There has been no memo/e-mail from CVB regarding drinking, period. Ever. It's not true. Unless he sent it to every staff member but me.
I wonder if Deep Purple received it?
If you saw it, it certainly couldn't be that difficult to show it to the rest of us.
Excellent. Now I know who to call first when I am awakened by students partying in my neighborhood late Fri. and Sat nights!
As I understand it, THC by itself cannot cause a lethal overdose.So again, can you get weed poisoning?
Do you live on Rogers? I received this email just a little while ago from the Tanglewood Neighbor Association. Seems the FWPD are on high alert. Here is what I received:
On 02-17-12 the Police were called to the 3500 block of Rogers Ave on a person with a weapon call.
Upon arrival the Officers on the scene observed a huge party at the residence.
Officers conducted an investigation and 11 people were cited for Consumption of Alcohol by a minor and the three residents were arrested for providing Alcohol to Minors and were taken to jail. Total arrests were 14.
All were TCU students.
During their investigation the Officers observed several items of drug paraphernalia throughout the house.

Even the Tanglewood Neighbor Association seems to be sensationalizing things - 11 cited and 3 arrests doesn't equal 14 arrests. Maybe they left something out.
Some adults by their station in life have more responsibility.
A citation is an arrest, but for a charge so minor that you usually aren't taken into custody and booked. Instead of requiring you to post bond to ensure your appearance in court, your promise to appear (by signing the citation) is enough of a guarantee. However, you can be taken into custody for any offense (except speeding and open container, if you sign the promise).They think citations are arrests?
So I heard from a TCU employee yesterday (a relative of mine) that CVB apparently got serious about putting an end to alcohol on campus. So much so, he sent a memo to TCU staff telling them that if they are at a restaurant or bar, and they are drinking alcohol and see a student walk in, they are to cease drinking alcohol (or leave the establishment).
Seriously? How in the hell would a TCU employee know if a student walks in?
After hearing this - and the media production from this week - I'm starting to think we have a VERY paranoid chancellor.

I think that has been a rule all along. They don't want faculty and students drinking in the same location, I don't think it's that big of a deal. Also, I am betting he is referring to when the faculty knows the student, such as from class etc. I doubt he is asking faculty to leave a restaurant where they are having a glass of wine just based on suspicion that some young looking person may be a TCU student.
