Just got this Email, seems like a waste of time to me. We are the 5th most dangerous city in the country, don't you think the cops could do somthing better with their time than bust college students for drinking? 
"Dear Students:
This letter is to inform you that a Party Patrol, consisting of
officers from the Richmond Police Department Third Precinct, the
VCU Police Department and the Virginia Department of Alcohol
Beverage Control, has been formed. The Party Patrol will patrol
areas of the Fan on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights during
the month of December. The goal of the Party Patrol is to reduce
the disorderly nature of parties that occur in that area.
The Patrol will have the ability to arrest individuals who are
publicly intoxicated, who provide alcohol to minors, or who are
underage drinkers. Additionally, information on the owner of the
residences where the parties are being held will be provided to
neighbors so that warrants can be obtained.
Please remember that you represent VCU in the community and that
you should demonstrate the appropriate behavior, even when off
campus. The University has the right to adjudicate students who
have been convicted of off-campus crimes. The entire Rules and
Procedures, which outlines the expectations and consequences of
student behavior, can be found in the Resource Guide and on line
at http://www.students.vcu.edu/rg/.
We encourage all students to be safe and to use good judgement.
Sincerely,
Reuban B. Rodriguez
Associate Vice Provost and Dean of Students"
