University of Arkansas Statement Regarding Sanctions
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Several media organizations have reported that certain changes to the guidelines for marijuana and alcohol sanctions on campus have been equalized. This information is not accurate. No changes have been made to university policies having to do with alcohol or drug violations. While certain revisions to existing policy have been considered by various campus organizations and groups, none of them were ever approved by the university administration.
The university is constantly looking at ways to address student alcohol and drug violations in a comprehensive manner. The sanctioning guidelines for violations are in place to educate students and help them understand that all actions have consequences.
