1. The University cannot and should not “stand guard” over its students - they are independent young adults who must take responsibility for their actions . . .
2. BUT, the University AND the community have a responsibility to be absolutely clear about their expectations for every citizen’s behavior, including students.

How do we do that?

1. Through an educational campaign that helps students and others host safe social gatherings and to know their responsibility as a host for the safety and well-being of their guests and neighbors;
2. Though fair but firm enforcement of existing laws that protect the community from alcohol-related harm:
   • DUI enforcement
   • Party patrols to disperse dangerous crowds
   • Enforce laws prohibiting alcohol sales to minors
3. Through placing the burden of costs to those who repeatedly require community or police response - a “response cost” ordinance.
