In fact, the number of alcohol-related arrests was higher in 2006 than it had been in the past 13 years. The lowest number of arrests happened in 2000, with police only arresting 12 people in violation of the alcohol laws. The previous high happened in 2002 with 96 alcohol-related arrests. Since 1993, the number of alcohol arrests has been all over the board. SIUE Police Lt. Kevin Schmoll said he could not explain the sporadic increase and decrease in arrests since 1993. The university is required to publish timely information on the campus crime statistics and the security policies under the Jeanne Cleary Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act. Under this act, an alcohol offense includes illegal transportation, possession and consumption of alcohol and the sale of liquor to a minor. Though more arrests were made in 2006 than in 2005, Schmoll said the police have not changed the way they operate. “We’re about the same as the years before,” Schmoll said. Schmoll said the police have not increased patrols on campus. However, they are instructed to patrol the residence areas after classes are out because diat is where the majority of the people are. Since they are already in the residence areas, the police can Steve Berry/Alestle spot parties and respond quickly even before complaints are Junior Mike Maschhoff helps pharmacy student Sara Robinson through “A Fatal Spin on the Classic Obstacle Course,” in which participants wore made. goggles to simulate intoxication.
