-The Daily Collegian Friday, May 15, 1981 Legal ri USG clarifies By ANNE CONNERS Daily Collegian Staff Writer John has a bong in his room. There's a knock at the door. John yells, "Come on in." Two. University Police Services officers enter his room. If this hypothetical situation actual ly occurred, what rights would John have? Could the police confiscate his paraphernalia? To clear up the confusion about what the University police can and cannot do, several members of the Undergraduate Student Government Senate have formed a Police Securi ties Committee. "Most of the time students get so nervous, they don't know what their rights are and they don't question the officer," said Leni Barch, former chairwoman of the committee. The committee's key project is to publish a pamphlet informing stu dents of their legal rights, Barch said. "We want to find out all aspects of the alcohol policy and drug parapher nalia policy," she said. "What rights do they have in confiscating par aphernalia from your room?" t Another major goal is to increase communication between police and students.

'Most of the time students get so nervous, they don't know what their rights are and they don't question the officer.' —Leni Barch David E. Stormer, director of Uni versity safety, said many students are unclear on police policies concerning parking and alcohol and drug con sumption because the high rate of student turnover limits communica tion between police and students. Communicating with students is "a consistant challenge because of the relatively short time the student body resides on campus," he said. "So many times we say things every year, and we assume everyone knows." Also, students seldom hear if any of the crimes committed on campus are SPRING SALE ALL LONG DRESSES-30% OFF ALL BATHING SUITS-10% OFF ALL RAINCOATS-20% OFF ALL JACKETS-UP TO 30% OFF SUITS, DRESSES, CO-ORDS., & JUMPSUITS -UP TO 40% OFF SHIRTS, BLOUSES, & TOPS-UP TO 40% OFF ALL CURRENT MERCHANDISE!

"Communication doesn't come back to the students about crimes committed." To further improve students' awareness of issues, Barch suggested the police conduct seminars on rape, safety tips and parking violations. Stormer said the police already conduct successful anti-assault, rape and alcohol awareness programs in the residence halls. "A dialogue which can be ongoing for the exchange of information and positions I believe that is something that would be participated in and supported by residence halls," he said. Stormer said the •committee will enable police and students to cooper ate more with each other. Verbal communication is often more effective than a written docu ment, he said. The ,committee also wants to help students understand the criteria the police have for giving parking and traffic tickets, Barth said. James McJunkin, newly-elected committee chairman, said any star dents who had any complaint's, sug gestions or ideas could contact the committee at the USG office in 203 HUB.
