New H. Po Alcohol Policy — Ivy Prosecutions Update
Let’s compare the Hanover Po’s vigorous prosecution of Dartmouth’s underage drinkers with the activities of the police forces in Providence, Manhattan, Cambridge, Princeton, New Haven, Philadelphia and Ithaca.
In the 2006-2008 period, Brown, Columbia and Harvard saw no police arrests at all; Princeton had 12; Yale had 65; Penn had 54; and only 38 of Cornell’s 13,562 undergrads were arrested by the Ithaca police for alcohol violations. That’s a total for all of the Ivies of 169 arrests.
However, among Dartmouth’s undergraduate student population of 4,164, the smallest in the Ivy League, during the same time period there were 212 alcohol arrests by the Hanover Police.
Here’s how to take a look at the federal government’s Clery Act stats for any school in the country.
