Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act 2014 Biennial Review Kent State University In compliance with the Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act ( DFSCA, 20 U.S.C. 1011i), the following review of Kent State University s alcohol and other drug programs assesses the academic years 2012-2013 and 2013-2014. Introduction Kent State University s student body consists of more than 35,000 undergraduates and 6,000 graduates enrolled from all 50 states and 100 different countries. Additionally, Kent State employs more than 6,800 faculty and staff. Since the DFSCA s 1994 amendments to the Higher Education Act of 1965, institutions of higher education have been responsible for communicating standards and prevention efforts regarding the unlawful possession, use, or distribution of alcohol and other illicit drugs (AOD) on their campuses. Every year, institutions are responsible for notifying students, faculty, and staff of the consequences AOD brings to the campus community. Every other year, in a biennial review, institutions must prepare a report that assesses AOD prevention efforts and allows for growth by examining the strengths and weaknesses of current offerings. Institutions are charged with determining the effectiveness of their efforts and ensuring that disciplinary standards for enforcement are being upheld. This biennial review has been completed by Healthy Kent. Healthy Kent, Kent State University s Alcohol and Other Drug Task Force, is a group that fosters campus and community collaboration aimed at reducing the negative impact of alcohol and other drug use in our community. This group makes recommendations for policy and program changes, serves as the lead campus group to collaborate with community resources to reduce alcohol and other drug-related problems, coordinates the institutional alcohol and other drugs biennial review, and supports efforts of the community to reduce high risk alcohol and other drugs related negative behavior on and off campus. Description of the AOD Program Elements Program Inventory AOD programs and events are offered to students and employees on the Kent Campus by Residence Services, Office of Student Conduct, Police Services, University Health Services, Center for Student Involvement and the Division of Human Resources. For the academic years 2012-2013 and 2013-2014, 180 AOD programs and events were offered and attended by 7,965 students and employees. A complete program and event inventory is available in the Appendix of this report. Some programs and events were held online, such as the echeckup TO GO program through Residence Services, however, the majority of programs and events were held in-person, including safety and awareness presentations by Kent State Police Services and AOD workshops by the Office of Health Promotion. Additionally, programs focusing on individual health and enrichment were offered. These programs did not
specifically focus on AOD issues, but addressed the overarching concept of healthy lifestyles. Examples such as Recreational Services and the Sexual and Relationship Violence Support Services Office deserve recognition as positive contributors to healthy endeavors within the University community but will not be evaluated or elaborated on in this report. In addition, the Office of Student Conduct is delegated the responsibility of enforcing the Code of Student Conduct. The Code of Student Conduct outlines the University s expectations for student behavior; the Office of Student Conduct facilitates the review of student behavior that may be in violation of the expectations outlined in the Code of Student Conduct. In conjunction, Residence Services addresses violations for possession and use of alcohol and controlled substances. Details of the cases reviewed by both offices are outlined later in this report and additional data is included in the appendices. Annually, the faculty representative to Healthy Kent, an assistant professor in the College of Public Health, sends and collects a survey to students seeking specific alcohol and drug usage information. A grant from Portage County supports this research. Results are included at the end of this report (see Appendix). The Campus Safety, Security, and Fire Safety Bulletin is released annually for each of the eight campuses of Kent State University along with the College of Podiatric Medicine. Reports for each campus include AOD related crime statistics, programming information, and campus and local resources. The Office of Health Promotion on the Kent Campus is available as a resource to all other campuses for programming as well. Policy and Procedure Inventory A number of administrative functions are intended to have an impact on AOD prevention and awareness efforts. The University utilizes a Good Samaritan provision to address students who have experienced an AOD overdose and require a mental health follow-up. Parental notification letters are sent by the Office of Student Conduct and Residence Services after underage students are found responsible for alcohol or controlled substances violations. A coordinated effort between Kent State University and the City of Kent has addressed high risk AOD behaviors by reducing off campus party and noise disturbance concerns. In 2014, the Women s Center negotiated to pilot an online educational program, Think Luv, with students. Think Luv is a web-based program focused on awareness and reduction of sexual misconduct that includes an educational component describing how AOD involvement frequently factors into situations involving sexual misconduct. Statement of AOD Program Goals and Goal Achievement Kent State University s program goals for this biennial review during the 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 academic years were to: 1. Increase AOD awareness through prevention programming to students and employees. 2. Eliminate College Fest, an annual high risk block party, in the City of Kent. 3. Provide AOD support services for students and employees.
4. Create an AOD addiction counselor position in Psychological Services, a unit of University Health Services. 5. Hold students accountable for AOD violations by enforcing the Code of Student Conduct. The outcomes of these goals during this biennial review period are: 1. Increase AOD awareness through prevention programming to students and employees. Awareness regarding AOD rules and regulations begins for students at Destination Kent State, Kent State University s new student orientation program. This program takes place prior to the start of each semester, and in it students are informed of the University s AOD policies. First Year Experience courses have a session targeting AOD awareness involving presenters from University Health Services and community partnerships. University Health Services provides preventative and on-going AOD services for students. AOD and depression screening are examples of programs that University Health Services supplies to aid in awareness and prevention. Student organizations have assisted in the University s efforts to address AOD awareness and provide additional programming and resources to our students. The message provided for students would not be effective without the willingness of students to challenge their peers perceptions and behaviors related to AOD. The Greek community at Kent State University provides specific training to their members in the form of GreekLifeEdu, an online program provided to new members in each organization to measure their assumptions and behaviors in regards to alcohol. This program is provided by EverFi, Inc. and provides valuable information regarding trends among our student population that guides additional program development for the community. Additionally, the Greek councils sponsor two risk awareness weeks each year that incorporate programming related to AOD topics that are open to the campus community. Employees are informed about the Employee Assistance Program (EAP) through new employee orientation materials. The EAP provides assistance with and access to resources for AOD concerns. 2. Eliminate College Fest, an annual high risk block party, in the City of Kent. College Fest has been a day-long block party attended by thousands of people. Underage drinking, reckless behavior, and acts of violence such as fighting and rioting characterized this event. Kent State University joined with student leaders, law enforcement agencies, community members, city employees, and local businesses to collaborate and eliminate this event. The result was that no college fest activity materialized in 2013 and 2014. 3. Provide AOD support services for students and employees. Kent State University utilizes licensed psychologists and counseling graduate students to supply AOD services for students, faculty, and staff. Psychological Services, a unit of University Health Services, is the primary service provider for students. The Counseling and Human Development Center (White Hall) and Psychological Clinic (Kent Hall) are also available to students, faculty, and staff. Portage County resources such as Townhall II, a community treatment agency, are promoted and accessible for students, faculty and staff. The University s employee assistance program, Impact, provides assistance with and access to resources regarding AOD concerns for employees.
4. Create an AOD addiction counselor position in Psychological Services. In 2013, University Health Services hired a Chemical Dependency Counselor. This counselor immediately began accepting clients who made contact on their own and clients who were referred due to outcomes from AOD incidents or campus adjudication from Residence Services or the Office of Student Conduct. 5. Hold students accountable for AOD violations by enforcing the Code of Student Conduct. Kent State University Police Services, Residence Services, Office of Student Conduct, and Human Resources are the primary departments that coordinate a review of reported behavior when an alleged policy violation involving AOD occurs. Where students are accused of violations, there is a collaborative effort between Police Services, Residence Services, and the Office of Student Conduct to address adjudication both on campus and in the surrounding community. When an accused student is found responsible for violating University policy, the severity of the actions leads to sanctions focused on educational opportunities while being cognizant of individual safety and the campus community. Where employees are accused of violations, the supervisor is encouraged to review the reported behavior with Human Resources for appropriate action. In the academic year 2012-2013 the Office of Student Conduct adjudicated 318 AOD cases. In the academic year 2013-2014 the Office of Student Conduct adjudicated 297 AOD cases. The most frequent educational sanctions for these cases were compliance with court-ordered diversion programs and AOD workshops offered through University Health Services. In academic year 2012-2013, Residence Services addressed 682 AOD cases. In the academic year 2013-2014, Residence Services addresses 641 AOD cases. For all first-time alcohol violations in the residence halls where police do not cite students, Residence Services assigns echeckup To Go online educational programs. In the fall 2013 semester, Residence Services began assigning an echeckup To Go marijuana online educational program for first-time odor of marijuana violations. Greek membership uses a self-governance component where chapters use their internal judicial boards to hold members accountable for violations of organizational policy related to AOD. Sanctions within the organizations can range from written warning to membership termination. Summaries of AOD Program Strengths and Weaknesses Strengths Multiple departments and various offices (Residence Services, Office of Student Conduct, Police Services, University Health Services, Center for Student Involvement and Division of Human Resources) offer AOD programs, events, and resources. These programs, events and resources are conducive to individuals who may be at different developmental maturities. University personnel and peer
facilitators coordinating programs and events, and providing resources, are trained to address AOD concerns. Kent State University and the City of Kent, Ohio have significantly increased collaborations during the review period. Campus and city officials meet monthly to discuss issues impacting the community typically as a result of AOD behavior. Communicating with city officials, police, and notifying landlords about problem properties has been effective. University staff and Portage County Mental Health and Recovery Board are connected and promote appropriate referrals to increase awareness of AOD issues. Both municipal and campus leaders are members of Healthy Kent: Alcohol and Other Drug Task Force. The charge of this group is to share information about AOD initiatives, communicate resources, and mobilize to address specific AOD concerns. Weaknesses A central theme for how Kent State University addresses AOD prevention, education, awareness, and response is not articulated through any one administrator or committee. This has led to inconsistency in assessment, benchmarking, and dissemination of available information and resources. This biennial review reveals inefficiency that needs to be addressed in the future to best serve the campus and community. No regional campus or College of Podiatric Medicine representatives serve on Healthy Kent; representatives should be added for the next biennium. Procedures for Distribution of Annual AOD Notification to Students and Employees Through the Office of the Vice President of Enrollment Management and Student Affairs, the Associate Vice President for Student Affairs and Dean of Students ( Dean of Students ) is responsible for coordinating and distributing the annual AOD notification to students, faculty, and staff. For the most recent distribution (2014) the Dean of Students consulted with the Office of Health Promotion, University Health Services, Office of Student Conduct, Police Services, and Office of General Counsel to verify the information and resources. An email was sent to the entire Kent State University community. In addition to the email, a website on the Vice President for Enrollment Management and Student Affairs page was created to display further resources and details for all University personnel and community members to view. The 2013 and 2014 annual notification is available in the appendix of this document. Recommendations for Revising AOD Programs The following recommendations are made from the co-chairs of Healthy Kent for revising AOD programs, events, and resources. In the future, the Healthy Kent group will make these recommendations together: Continue to build on the strengths of providing high quality and a large quantity of programs from educated and diverse presenters Use Healthy Kent: Alcohol and Other Drug Task Force as the group responsible for supplying the University s single voice for direction and goals regarding AOD programs Develop a feasible and consistent assessment strategy for AOD programs, events, and resources Integrate regional campuses into programing, events, and resources Review and update AOD policies as appropriate

Tri-Towers Rotunda Guest Registration Overview of Policy Between the hours of 12:00 am 4:00 am during the mornings of Friday, Saturday and Sunday the Tri Towers Rotunda is restricted access to only KSU students who show their KSU ID and to registered guests of residential students who are issued a wrist band. Only residential KSU students are permitted to register up to two guests per weekend. Residential students must register with their guest in person at the Tri Towers Desk between the hours of 8:00 am 10:00 pm. Registered guests are issued a colored wrist band (with the color changing randomly each week) listing their and their host s information which they must wear - and show - in order to gain entry into the Tri Rotunda during the restricted hours and also be accompanied by their host at the time of entry. There are security personnel stationed at each of the four entrances leading into the Tri Rotunda to enforce this policy during the restricted hours each weekend. Summary During this academic year there were 592 students who registered 714 guests. Of the 714 guests, 86 (12%) were from out-of-state. 45 (52%) of the 86 out-of-state guests came from Pennsylvania. By comparison, in AY 2011-2012 there were 660 students who registered 782 guests, of which 130 guests were from out-of-state. All signed guest registration forms for each semester are stored in the Security Office and are in alphabetical order (by the host s last name) and are separated by week. These forms will remain in the Security Office for at least one full year after the conclusion of the semester in which they were issued. Alcohol Incidents Called Into Security In the 2012-2013 academic year there were 147 incidents (down 9% from the previous year) involving alcohol (that met our Department s definition of a party ) that were called into Security that required the Assistant Director for Safety & Security and/or Assistant Security Manager to respond to. There were 787 people documented in these 147 incidents. The KSUPD were called for 65 (44%) of these incidents. 135 (17%) people were issued citations by KSUPD for various alcohol offenses, though most were for prohibitions charges. This represents a decline of about 10% in the number of people that were documented by police from the previous year in which 142 people were issued citations. These alcohol incidents occurred during the following days of the week: Sunday (12); Monday (1); Tuesday (3); Wednesday (4); Thursday (39); Friday (31), and Saturday (57). 6
Centralized Discipline Overview This was the fourth year in which the centralized discipline process has been used whereby all incident reports written by student and professional staff members are first reviewed by one person (Assistant Director, Safety & Security) who reviews them and then distributes them out among the RHD staff. The goal and purpose of this new process was to 1) more equally distribute the discipline workload among the RHD staff and 2) help to ensure that individual sanctions are more consistent among all the students involved in the one incident. Each RHD was generally assigned between 233 238 conduct Child Incident Report cases in Advocate during the 2012-2013 academic year, with a total of 2,836 cases being assigned. These 2,836 cases represent a nearly 9% decrease in the number of cases assigned to RHD s from the previous year. These numbers do not reflect non-conduct type of cases (i.e., flu-like, vandalism, psychological, EMS, roommate issue/concerns, etc.) nor do they reflect the 1,866 Winter Break Closing and 745 Spring Break Closing cases that were inputted into Advocate.

It is hoped that this will also dramatically reduce the number of violations being found during the Winter and Spring Break Closings. There were 850 rooms documented for mostly fire safety violations during the Fire Safety Room Inspection process, which occurred during the 3 rd and 4 th week of the fall semester. Our goal was then to see a 30% reduction in the overall number of rooms being documented over Winter Break, which would have only been 595 rooms documented. Over the Winter Break there were 833 rooms documented for Fire Safety/General Safety violations resulting in a reduction rate of only 2%, far less than the 30% reduction rate that was hoped for. The chart on the next page shows a comparison of each resident hall and the percentage change from September to Winter Break Inspections. 8
While some halls did well, and met the goal, others did not do as well. It is promising that we did see a reduction however slight in number of rooms documented at Winter Break. It is therefore recommended that we continue with these fire safety reduction efforts for at least once more year to see if we can gain traction and continue to reduce the number of fire safety violations being found in the residence halls.

Residence Hall Fire Alarms During the AY 2012-2013 there were 150 fire alarms that occurred in the residence halls that resulted in the fire department being dispatched to the residence halls. This is down from the previous AY 2011-2012 in which there were 166 fire alarms in the residence halls. Winter Break Closing Violation Information Students found in violation of a policy violation during Winter Break and Spring Break room checks are contacted by the RHD of the hall where they live upon their return to campus. In most cases (general safety violations) the RHD will issue a Letter of Warning to the student requesting that the safety violation be corrected and then hall staff follow up to make sure the item is removed (if applicable) or violation remedied. If it is a different type of policy violation (i.e., alcohol) then the RHD will meet with the student(s) involved for a disciplinary meeting. In either case, such violations are inputted into the Advocate database.

Student Conduct Referrals: Brief Summary of Educational Efforts The Department of Residence Services attempts to resolve student disciplinary issues at the lowest level possible and aim to take an educational approach in addressing these disciplinary issues some of which are listed below. When those options have been exhausted then a student is referred to the Office of Student Conduct for a formal disciplinary hearing. This past academic year the Office of Student Conduct reported that 296 students were referred to their office from Residence Services. This accounts for about 49% of their offices entire case load for the year. By comparison, last year there were 285 students referred to Student Conduct from Residence Services. echeckup (Online Alcohol Workshop): In an effort to provide an additional educational component to our inventory of sanctions, the online echeckup TO GO Alcohol workshop was purchased and staff began to utilize it as a sanctioning tool starting in the spring 2012 semester. Students found responsible for their first alcohol policy violation by an A/RHD were to be assigned this online workshop as part of their sanction. These students then had to verify that they completed the survey so that the RHD issuing the sanction would know that the sanction had been completed. 390 people completed the survey this past year, while 339 of those students verified that they had completed the survey. The survey is live and online and can be completed by anyone, which is why there may be more students taking the survey than are being assigned to do so. Demographic information of those who completed echeckup: Males: 39% Females: 61% Greek: 11% Non-Greek: 89% Athletes: 7% Non-Athletes: 93% Students spent on average about $12.26 per week on alcohol On average the highest BAC in a typical week for students was 0.12 On the median, students drank about 16 beers per month Additional Information: For 339 of the students assigned echeckup, this was their first alcohol violation. 35 students had an alcohol policy violation prior to the start of the spring 2012 semester. After being assigned echeckup o 25 students were found in violation of the alcohol policy one more time The recidivism rate was 7.4% for those students assigned to echeckup 17
Parental Notification: The Department of Residence Services notifies the parents/guardians of residence hall students under the age of 21 if their student is found to be in violation of the residence hall alcohol policies and who has not been cited by the police or referred to Student Conduct. A/RHD s notify their supervisor when a student is documented and found responsible for violation of the alcohol policy and the Assistant Director, Residential Communities for each area send these letters to the students permanent addresses. During the AY 12/13, 356 students were issued Parental Notification Letters. By comparison, 261 students received a PNL in AY 11/2, 194 students in AY 10/11 and 92 students received a PNL in AY 09/10. Community Billing: All floor/community residents can collectively be held responsible for damages to public areas that cannot be attributed to specific individuals. The AY 12/13 saw 17 separate community billings resulting in a total amount of $5,659.01. By comparison, last year there were 15 separate community billings resulting in a total of $5,190.61. Psychological Referral Letters: The Department of Residence Services will issue a student who has experienced a psychological crisis a letter mandating they be evaluated by the university s Psychological Services Office before they can be cleared to remain in on-campus housing. The AY 12/13 there were 41 students issued a Psychological Referral Letter, compared to 45 Psychological Referral Letters being issued during the AY 11/12. 30 were from the Tri/Twin/Eastway area, 9 were from the Quad/NF/CC s area and 2 were from Allerton. Ethical Decision Making Initiatives: During the fall 2012 semester, the Office of Student Conduct created a new two-hour Decision Making and Ethics Workshop that A/RHD s and Hearing Officers can utilize as an educational sanctioning tool. o During the Spring Semester, there were 4 Decision Making and Ethics Workshops scheduled. o A total of 39 students were assigned to attend, 10 (26%) students were No-Shows and 4 (10%) of students were turned away because they did no complete the workbook prior to the workshop. 18
The Department of Residence Services created a new Ethical Decision Making Webpage that was unveiled for spring 2013, linked from our homepage, where students who are assigned to complete e-checkup must now view and complete a short Ethical Decision Quiz before they receive the link to complete e-checkup. This new webpage replaces the former Do U Herd? webpage and campaign.

KSUPD Vandalism Calls to Residence Halls During this academic year the KSU Police Department took 123 reports for various acts of vandalism that occurred in the residence halls on campus. 20% came from Prentice Hall, which had a large number of reported burning of flyers and bulletin boards in the building. The following list indicates in which halls these reports originated from for the past three years.

Continuation of Existing Policies/Practices: Policy Recommendations for 2013-2014 The Tri-Towers Rotunda Guest Registration policy continues to have a positive effect on the overall safety and security of the Tri Rotunda area after midnight on the weekends by limiting access of non-students. Due to Rosie s Diner being a 24-hour operation, it requires additional security during these late night hours so that we can avoid previous incidents of violence caused mainly by non-students looking for a late-night place to eat in Kent. Contacting KSU Police for Alcohol Parties in the residence halls seems to be effective in reducing the number of alcohol violations. During the time that this policy has been in place we have seen a decrease in the number of alcohol incidents and decrease in the number of students being documented for an alcohol policy violation. Additionally, the percentage of time that the KSU police have been called for alcohol policies has decreased to fewer than 45% of the alcohol parties. Simply stated, we are seeing positive results. For these reasons, this practice of contacting KSU police for alcohol parties should continue for the foreseeable future. The more intentional enforcement of the Quiet Hours policy the past two years should continue for the next academic year. Residential students continue to disclose through the EBI survey that living in a quieter environment is important for study and sleep reasons, but yet their community still remains too noisy at times. This past year was the first complete academic year that saw the introduction of the echeckup TO GO online alcohol survey for students being found responsible for an alcohol policy violation. This tool that was introduced to the A/RHD staff to help provide an additional educational resource for addressing underage drinking on-campus. The recidivism rate for the students completing echeckup this year was 7.4%. It is too early to tell what impact this is having on residents, but current results are favorable, so and additional academic year using echeckup as an educational tool should continue. The centralized distribution of student disciplinary cases to RHDs continues to work well with our Centralized Discipline model. RHDs continue to be assigned about the same number of student discipline cases to hear each semester, thereby creating a more balanced and equal distribution of the discipline workload among the entire RHD staff. This practice should continue to for the foreseeable future. This past year saw the implementation of Fire Safety Room Inspections in the first 3-4 weeks of the fall semester. While we only saw a slight 2% reduction in fire safety policy 21
violations, it is believed that with additional education on the part of the residents and more buy-in from the hall staff, particularly the RA staff, that this initiative can be a beneficial one and help us to achieve our desired departmental goal of 30% reduction in fire safety policy violation. For Future Recommendations: Additional training for A/RHD staff is needed to focus on the following areas: o When and Why Advocate Child IR cases can/should be closed out. o A more uniform approach to enforcement of Quirt Hours in the residence halls by all A/RHD staffs and the Security staff. Currently there seems to be a wide variety of how/when quiet hours are enforced in the residence halls, depending upon that hall s leadership. With the elimination of the Odor of Marijuana as a policy violation, being make a nonconduct policy violation, more effort will need to be made to provide the A/RHD staff with educational tools to approach the issue of odor. o One key approach will be to more effectively take advantage of the Decision making and Ethics Workshop that was introduced this past spring semester. o This new change in policy will be highlighted during A/RHD and RA training with the hall staff. 22

Cooking was the #1 cause of the fire alarms. McDowell Hall had the highest number of fire alarms. This is down from the previous fall semester in which there were 107 fire alarms in the residence halls. Fire Safety Room Inspections Due to the large number of fire safety violations being found during Winter and Spring closings during 2011-2012, the Department of Residence Services implemented a new Fire Safety Room Inspection process of all resident s rooms in the first few weeks of the fall semester in order to identify and educate residents regarding these potential fire safety hazards before the end of the semester. It is hoped that this will also dramatically reduce the number of violations being found 26
during the Winter and Spring Break Closings. Below is a listing of how many fire safety violations were found in each hall during Fire safety Inspections in mid-september.

By comparison, in fall 2011 there were 435 student hosts with 520 registered guests, of which 91 were from out-of-state. There were 23 residence halls with at least one registered host and guest this semester. Allyn and Prentice were the only two halls in which no residents registered any guests. Not surprisingly, the halls with the most number of registered hosts and guests were the three halls in Tri-Towers. Koonce had the most with 102 hosts and 118 guests followed by Wright with 98 hosts and 119 guests and then Leebrick with 39 hosts and 45 guests. All signed guest registration forms for the semester are stored in the Security Office and are in alphabetical order (by the host s last name) and are separated by week.

This resulted in 511 people being documented for an alcohol policy violation. The KSUPD were called to 46 (48.5%) of these incidents and they cited 91 (18%) of the individuals. However, the KSUPD were unable to respond to 5 (11%) of the 46 times they were called; four of those five times occurred on Halloween. 30
These figures show mixed results from the previous fall semester. The total number of alcohol parties was up a little more than 4% (91 to 95) from fall 2011. The number of people documented was up almost 2% (499 to 511) from fall 2011. The number of times KSU PD was called was down almost 20% (57 to 46) from fall 2011. The number of people cited by KSU PD was down almost 11% (102 to 91) from fall 2011. These alcohol incidents occurred during the following days of the week: Sunday (6); Monday (1); Tuesday (1); Wednesday (2); Thursday (25); Friday (14), and Saturday (46). The chart on the next page represents the total number of alcohol Parent and Child Incident Reports per hall during the fall 2012 semester and compares the data to the previous fall 2011 semester. It reveals that there was an 18% increase in number of alcohol incidents in fall 2012 resulting in 15% more people being documented that in fall 2011.

Tri-Towers Rotunda Guest Registration Overview of Policy Between the hours of 12:00 am 4:00 am during the mornings of Friday, Saturday and Sunday the Tri Towers Rotunda is restricted access to only KSU students who show their KSU ID and to registered guests of residential students who are issued a wrist band. Only residential KSU students are permitted to register up to two guests per weekend. Residential students must register with their guest in person at the Tri Towers Desk between the hours of 8:00 am 10:00 pm. Registered guests are issued a colored wrist band (with the color changing randomly each week) listing their and their host s information which they must wear - and show - in order to gain entry into the Tri Rotunda during the restricted hours and also be accompanied by their host at the time of entry. There are security personnel stationed at each of the four entrances leading into the Tri Rotunda to enforce this policy during the restricted hours each weekend. Summary During this academic year there were 564 students who registered 676 guests. Of the 676 guests, 92 (14%) were from out-of-state. 56 (61%) of the 92 out-of-state guests came from Pennsylvania. By comparison, in AY 2012-2013 there were 592 students who registered 714 guests, of which 86 guests were from out-of-state. All signed guest registration forms for each semester are stored in the Security Office and are in alphabetical order (by the host s last name) and are separated by week. These forms will remain in the Security Office for at least one full year after the conclusion of the semester in which they were issued. Alcohol Incidents Called Into Security In the 2013-2014 academic year there were 128 incidents (down 13% from the previous year of 147 incidents) involving alcohol (that met our Department s definition of a party ) that were called into Security that required the Assistant Director for Safety & Security and/or Coordinator for Safety & Security to respond to. There were 750 people documented in these 128 incidents. The KSUPD were called for 59 (47%) of these incidents. 158 (21%) people were issued citations by KSUPD for various alcohol offenses, though most were for prohibitions charges. This represents an increase of about 17% in the number of people that were cited by police from the previous year in which 135 people were issued citations. These alcohol incidents occurred during the following days of the week: Sunday (9); Monday (3); Tuesday (3); Wednesday (0); Thursday (30); Friday (19), and Saturday (64). 6
Centralized Discipline Overview This was the fifth year in which the centralized discipline process has been used whereby all incident reports written by student and professional staff members are first reviewed by one of two people (Assistant Director, Safety & Security or Coordinator, Safety & Security) who review them and then distributes them out among the RHD staff. The goal and purpose of this new process was to 1) more equally distribute the discipline workload among the RHD staff and 2) help to ensure that individual sanctions are more consistent among all the students involved in the one incident. Each RHD was assigned an average of 230 conduct Child Incident Report cases in Advocate during the 2013-2014 academic year, with a total of 2,874 cases being assigned. These 2,874 cases represent about a 1% increase in the number of cases assigned to RHD s from the previous year in which there were 2,836. These numbers do not reflect non-conduct type of cases (i.e., flu-like, vandalism, psychological, EMS, roommate issue/concerns, etc.) nor do they reflect the 600 Winter Break Closing and 296 Spring Break Closing cases that were inputted into Advocate.

It is hoped that this will also dramatically reduce the number of violations being found during the Winter and Spring Break Closings. There were 765 rooms documented for mostly fire safety violations during the Fire Safety Room Inspection process, which occurred during the 3 rd and 4 th week of the fall semester. Our departmental goal was then to see a 30% reduction in the overall number of rooms being documented over Winter Break. Over the Winter Break there were 468 rooms documented for Fire Safety/General Safety violations resulting in a reduction rate of 38.8%. It is very promising that we saw such a large reduction even surpassing our original goal in number of rooms documented at Winter Break. Residence Hall Fire Alarms During the AY 2013-2014 there were 126 fire alarms that occurred in the residence halls that resulted in the fire department being dispatched to the residence halls. This is down from the previous AY 2012-2013 in which there were 150 fire alarms in the residence halls. Winter Break Closing Violation Information Students found in violation of a policy violation during Winter Break and Spring Break room checks are contacted by the RHD of the hall where they live upon their return to campus. In most cases (general safety violations) the RHD will issue a Letter of Warning to the student requesting that the safety violation be corrected and then hall staff follow up to make sure the item is removed (if applicable) or violation remedied. If it is a different type of policy violation (i.e., alcohol) then the RHD will meet with the student(s) involved for a disciplinary meeting. In either case, such violations are inputted into the Advocate database. 8

Student Conduct Referrals: Brief Summary of Educational Efforts The Department of Residence Services attempts to resolve student disciplinary issues at the lowest level possible and aim to take an educational approach in addressing these disciplinary issues some of which are listed below. When those options have been exhausted then a student is referred to the Office of Student Conduct for a formal disciplinary hearing. This past academic year the Office of Student Conduct reported that 266 students were referred to their office from Residence Services. This accounts for about 50% of their offices entire case load for the year. By comparison, last year there were 296 students referred to Student Conduct from Residence Services. Some additional statistics from the Office of Student Conduct this past year: They conducted 400 Hearings (56% were Sanction Hearings and 44% were Hearing Panels) 20 non-students were placed on PNG status Two 1219 Hearings were conducted 26 students were assigned 579 hours of Community Services Freshmen accounted for 49% of the students referred to their office, Sophomores @ 35%, Juniors @ 9%, Seniors @ 6% and Graduate students under 1%. Alcohol echeckup (Online Alcohol Workshop): In an effort to provide an additional educational component to our inventory of sanctions, the online echeckup TO GO Alcohol workshop was purchased and staff began to utilize it as a sanctioning tool starting in the spring 2012 semester. Students found responsible for their first alcohol policy violation by an A/RHD were to be assigned this online workshop as part of their sanction. These students then had to verify that they completed the survey so that the RHD issuing the sanction would know that the sanction had been completed. 255 people completed the survey this past year. The survey is live and online and can be completed by anyone, which is why there may be more students taking the survey than are being assigned to do so. Demographic information of those who completed echeckup: Males: 45% Females: 55% Freshman: 73% Sophomore: 24% Junior: 3% Greek: 12% Non-Greek: 88% Athletes: 6% Non-Athletes: 94% On-Campus: 97% Off-Campus: 3% On average the highest BAC in a typical week for students was 0.11 On the median, students drank about 10 beers per month (Males: 12, Females: 8) 16
On the median, students reported spending $10 per month on alcohol (Males: $15, Females $6) Additional Information: For 225 of the students assigned echeckup, this was their first alcohol violation. 30 students had an alcohol policy violation prior to being assigned echeckup. After being assigned echeckup o 25 students were found in violation of the alcohol policy after being assigned echeckup The recidivism rate was 9.8% for those students assigned to echeckup Marijuana echeckup (Online Marijuana Workshop): New for the Spring 2014 semester, we implemented the Marijuana echeckup online workshop (similar to the Alcohol echeckup program) for first or second offence odor of marijuana offenses occurring in the residence halls to help A/RHD s expand their resources of educational sanctions. 22 students completed the survey. One student was documented a second time for Odor of Marijuana after completing the Marijuana echeckup, making the recidivism rate at 4.5%. Demographic information of those who completed Marijuana echeckup: Males: 59% Females: 41% Freshmen: 50% Sophomores: 41% Juniors: 9% Greek: 5% Non-Greek: 95% Athlete: 5% Non-Athlete: 95% 100% lived on-campus 2 ½:: Average DAYS per month students reported to be under the influence 28 ½: Average HOURS per month reported to be under the influence $76.62: Average spent on MARIJUANA in a typical month o Males averaged $86.66 and Females averaged $62.11 $48.47: Average spent on ALCOHOL in a typical month o Males averaged $50.61 and Females averaged $45.39 Parental Notification: The Department of Residence Services notifies the parents/guardians of residence hall students under the age of 21 if their student is found to be in violation of the residence hall alcohol policies and who has not been cited by the police or referred to Student Conduct. A/RHD s 17
notify their supervisor when a student is documented and found responsible for violation of the alcohol policy and the Assistant Director, Residential Communities for each area send these letters to the students permanent addresses. During the AY 13/14, 202 students were issued Parental Notification Letters. By comparison, 356 students received a PNL last year, 261 students received a PNL in AY 11/12, 194 students in AY 10/11 and 92 students received a PNL in AY 09/10. Community Billing: All floor/community residents can collectively be held responsible for damages to public areas that cannot be attributed to specific individuals. The AY 13/14 saw 13 separate community billings resulting in a total amount of $8,143.80. By comparison, last year there were 17 separate community billings resulting in a total of $5,659.01. Psychological Referral Letters: The Department of Residence Services will issue a student who has experienced a psychological crisis a letter mandating they be evaluated by the university s Psychological Services Office before they can be cleared to remain in on-campus housing. In AY 13/14 there were 41 students issued a Psychological Referral Letter, the same number that were issued the previous year. 30 were from the Tri/Twin/Eastway area, 9 were from the Quad/NF/CC s area and 2 were from Allerton. Ethical Decision Making Initiatives: During the spring 2013 semester, the Office of Student Conduct started a new two-hour Decision Making and Ethics Workshop (DMEW) that A/RHD s and Hearing Officers can utilize as an educational sanctioning tool. o During the 2013-2014 AY, 83 students were assigned to attend the DMEW. o 23 (30%) students did not attend. New for the start of the Fall 2014 semester, the DMEW workshop is being remained Students Involved in Responsible Character Awareness (SIRCA). This change in name is the result of covering more than just decision making and ethics material. This newly updated workshop will cover topics such as values, historical discourse, morals and ultimately responsible character awareness. The Department of Residence Services created a new Ethical Decision Making Webpage that was unveiled for spring 2013, linked from our homepage, where students who are assigned to complete Alcohol e-checkup must now view and complete a short Ethical Decision Quiz before they receive the link to complete Alcohol e-checkup. 18

KSUPD Vandalism Calls to Residence Halls During this academic year the KSU Police Department took 60 reports for various acts of vandalism that occurred in the residence halls on campus. NOTE: The KSU Police reports are for Criminal Damage and Criminal Mischief charges, which are what we (Residence Services) would view and classify as Vandalism.

Continuation of Existing Policies/Practices: Policy Recommendations for 2014-2015 The Tri-Towers Rotunda Guest Registration policy continues to have a positive effect on the overall safety and security of the Tri Rotunda area after midnight on the weekends by limiting access of non-students. Due to Rosie s Diner being a 24-hour operation, it requires additional security during these late night hours so that we can avoid previous incidents of violence caused mainly by non-students looking for a late-night place to eat in Kent. Contacting KSU Police for Alcohol Parties in the residence halls is effective in reducing the number of alcohol violations. Since this policy has gone in effect we have seen a decrease in the number of alcohol incidents and decrease in the number of students being documented for an alcohol policy violation in the residence halls. Additionally, the percentage of time that the KSU police have been called for alcohol policies has decreased to fewer than 50% of the alcohol parties. Simply stated, we are seeing positive results. For these reasons, this practice of contacting KSU police for alcohol parties should continue for the foreseeable future. The more intentional enforcement of the Quiet Hours policy should continue for the next academic year. Residential students continue to disclose through the EBI survey that living in a quieter environment is important for study and sleep reasons, but yet their community still remains too noisy at times. While we started with a zero-tolerance approach in the fall 2013 semester, we recognized that this type of approach was not very effective and in some instances was causing staff to avoid confronting residents for noise issues because they didn t want to document them every single time. This past year was the second complete academic year that saw the introduction of the Alcohol echeckup TO GO online alcohol survey for students being found responsible for an alcohol policy violation. This tool that was introduced to the A/RHD staff to help provide an additional educational resource for addressing underage drinking on-campus. The recidivism rate for the students completing echeckup this year was just under 10%. Continued use of the Alcohol echeckup program is recommended as is adds a valuable educational tool that A/RHD s have at their disposal and is fairly inexpensive. This past spring 2014 semester saw the first semester in which we introduced the Marijuana echeckup TO GO online survey, similar to that of the Alcohol echeckup program. With further education on the part of hall staff about this program and the continued increase in marijuana incidents in the residence halls, it is hopeful that 21
this program can help have an impact on the rise in controlled substance violations for the future. Future results are needed to verify if this program will have an impact on student behavior. The centralized distribution of student disciplinary cases to RHDs continues to work well with our Centralized Discipline model. RHDs continue to be assigned about the same number of student discipline cases to hear each semester, thereby creating a more balanced and equal distribution of the discipline workload among the entire RHD staff. This year the Coordinator for Safety & Security was also added to the responsibility of reviewing, editing and assigned of these cases. This practice should continue to for the foreseeable future. This past year was the second completed year for Fire Safety Room Inspections in the first 3-4 weeks of the fall semester. While we only saw a slight 2% reduction in fire safety policy violations in the first year, this second year of implementation we saw much improved results of 38.8% reduction in fire safety violations. While these results are very promising, we need to continue to educate our RA staff on the importance of why this is done to help them see the value in being thorough in their Fire Safety Checks. If this is done, then even greater results should be expected in the future. For Future Recommendations: Additional training for A/RHD staff is needed to focus on the following areas: o When A/RHD staff meet with a student for a Quiet Hours policy violation, more emphasis should be placed upon the negative impact that student is having on the community and help them to understand how their actions can and do affect others living in the community. o The introduction of Restorative Justice principles will begin to have more emphasis in our student conduct meetings with students, so additional training of A/RHD staff will be needed to conducted so that our staff are more educated and prepared to help in this new path forward. We will not only continue to see Odor of Marijuana issues in the residence halls, but more than likely an increase number of this Non-Conduct issue. As such, continued discussions and trainings should take place on a regular basis to help our A/RHD staff become more comfortable in having these conversations with students. 22

Cooking was the #1 cause of the fire alarms. CCC had the highest number of fire alarms (10) and McDowell and Korb Halls tied for the second most at seven (7) fire alarms each. This is up from the previous fall semester in which there were 84 fire alarms in the residence halls, but down from fall 2011 in which there were 107 fire alarms. New this year, we installed Safe-T-Sensors on each of the microwaves in student rooms in CCA and Korb Hall over the summer, as these two halls had the most cooking false alarms last academic year. In the fall 2013 semester, CCA had two cooking false alarms (rooms 103 and 111) and Korb had one cooking false alarm in room 617. 26
Fire Safety Room Inspections Due to the large number of fire safety violations being found during Winter and Spring closings during 2011-2012, the Department of Residence Services implemented a new Fire Safety Room Inspection process of all resident s rooms in the first few weeks of the fall semester in order to identify and educate residents regarding these potential fire safety hazards before the end of the semester. It is hoped that this will also dramatically reduce the number of violations being found during the Winter and Spring Break Closings. Below is a listing of the 765 fire safety violations that were found in each hall during Fire Safety Inspections in mid-september. In Fall 2012 there were 850 rooms documented.

Of the 436 guests, 63 were from out-of-state. These out-of-state quests were from 10 different states and the District of Columbia with an overwhelming number (41) coming from PA. By comparison, in fall 2012 there were 364 student hosts with 442 registered guests, of which 51 were from out-of-state. There were 25 residence halls with at least one registered host and guest this semester. Not surprisingly, the halls with the most number of registered hosts and guests were the three halls in Tri-Towers. Koonce had the most with 115 hosts and 134 guests followed by Leebrick with 71 hosts and 78 guests and then Wright with 57 hosts and 77 guests. 27

Alcohol Incidents Called Into Security In the fall 2013 semester there were 66 incidents involving alcohol (that met our Department s definition of a party ) that were called into Security that required the Assistant Director and/or Assistant Security Manager to respond to. This resulted in 374 people being documented for an alcohol policy violation. The KSUPD were called to 33 (50%) of these incidents and they cited 87 (23%) of the individuals. Six of these incidents occurred on Halloween. These figures show mixed results from the previous fall semester. The total number of alcohol parties was down more than 30% (95 to 66) from fall 2012. The number of people documented was down almost 27% (511 to 374) from fall 2012. The number of times KSU PD was called was down 28% (46 to 33) from fall 2012. The number of people cited by KSU PD was down 4% (91 to 87) from fall 2012. These alcohol incidents occurred during the following days of the week: Sunday (7); Monday (0); Tuesday (1); Wednesday (0); Thursday (18); Friday (9), and Saturday (31*). (* 31 is slightly misleading in that 60% of the incidents - 19 - occurred on Halloween.) The chart listed below represents the total number of alcohol Parent and Child Incident Reports per hall during the fall 2013 semester and compares the data to the previous fall 2012 semester.

echeckup (Online Alcohol Workshop): Brief Summary of Educational Efforts 113 students completed the survey, while 107 of those students verified that they had completed the survey. The survey is live and online and can be completed by anyone, which is why there may be more students taking the survey than are being assigned to do so. Demographic information of those who completed echeckup: Males: 48% Females: 52% Greek: 15% Non-Greek: 85% Athletes: 5% Non-Athletes: 95% Live On-Campus: 96% Live Off-Campus: 4% Freshman: 76% Sophomore: 19% Junior: 4% Students spent on average about $18.83 per week on alcohol On average the highest BAC in a typical week for students was 0.10 On the median, students drank about nine (9) beers per month Additional Information: For 95 of the students assigned echeckup, this was their first alcohol violation. 12 students had a previous alcohol policy violation prior to being assigned echeckup.. After being assigned echeckup 3 students were found in violation of the alcohol policy one more time 4 students were found in violation of alcohol policy two more times The recidivism rate was about 6.5% for those students assigned to echeckup Decision making and Ethical Workshop (OSC): Five workshops were scheduled over the course of the fall semester. Four, seven, seven, six, and six students were assigned to each of the five workshops respectively for a total of 30 students being assigned to attend. Seven (23%) students failed to attend and two arrived 10 minutes late and will have to reschedule. Parental Notification Letters (PNL): The Department of Residence Services notifies the parents/guardians of residence hall students under the age of 21 if their student is found to be in violation of the residence hall alcohol policies and who has not been cited by the police or referred to the Office of Student Conduct. A/RHD s notify their supervisor when a student is documented and found responsible for 46
violation of the alcohol policy and the Assistant Director for each area sends these letters to the students permanent addresses. During the fall semester 108 students were issued Parental Notification Letters (62 from Josette and 46 from Kim). While this is a 52% decrease from the previous fall semester in which 226 students were issues PNL s, it is only a modest decrease from two years ago in which there were 129 students issued PNL s. Community Billing: All floor/community residents can collectively be held responsible for damages to public areas that cannot be attributed to specific individuals.
