The possession, sale or the furnishing of alcohol on the University campus is prohibited. Laws regarding the possession, sale, consumption or furnishing of alcohol are controlled by the State of Michigan Liquor Control Commission. However, the enforcement of alcohol laws on-campus is the primary responsibility of the University. The Spring Arbor University campus has been designated “drug free” and under no circumstances is the consumption of alcohol permitted. The possession, sale, manufacture or distribution of any controlled substance is illegal under both state and federal laws. Such laws are strictly enforced by the University. Violators are subject to University disciplinary action, criminal prosecution, fine and imprisonment. It is unlawful to sell, furnish or provide alcohol to a person under the age of 21. The possession of alcohol by anyone under 21 years of age in a public place or a place open to the public is illegal. It is also a violation of the University Alcohol Policy for anyone to consume or possess alcohol in any public or private area of campus. Individuals, organizations, or groups, etc. violating alcohol/substance policies or laws may be subject to sanctions by the University.

Protect Your Stuff!
Make sure you are keeping your rooms locked when you are not in them. This is the only way that you can make sure that your possessions stay inside and don't walk away with someone else. Remember if it looks wrong, it probably is and you should say something.
