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.

The Londoner - Sy
ghts explained
confusion on student rights
"I think the campus police set off
some type of negative stereotype with
students," Barch said.
'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

solved, Barch said. "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
