Anyone caught setting the phones off as a prank can be charged with the activation of emergency equipment, which is punishable by a fine, community service or both, depending on the judge. To the extreme, a student could get expelled from the university. This child-like scenario sounds familiar, much like the story of the boy who cried wolf. Peter was instructed not to cry wolf unless there was a wolf, but did anyway and when a wolf really was threatening, no one came to his rescue because no one took him seriously. The same can be applied to the emergency posts. If students continue to use the emergency posts for false alarms, police may not take the calls as seriously when a real emergency is in progress.
