DRUGS

2002, Hicks said.
Despite the more than three-fold
increase in drug violations, DPS has
cited a smaller percentage of students
than EPD did the prior year. This
year, DPS cited 36 percent of students
caught with drugs, with the remain
ing receiving referrals to judicial
affairs. In 2002 EPD cited 38 percent
of drug offenders caught on campus.
"The biggest increase this year to
last year has been in drug offenses,"
Hicks said at the meeting.
For that same period, alcohol
violations rose only 15 percent.
This year, 45 students were caught
with alcohol violations, compared
to 39 last year.
Hicks explained that it's difficult
to compare last year's numbers
with this year's because last year
DPS was unable to issue citations.
Also, he pointed out that three
quarters of people cited for alcohol
violations this year were cited at the
Civil War game. Next year's Civil
War game will be held at Oregon
State University, however.
DPS officer Jed McGuire said the
numbers are up this year because of
an increase in violations, not
patrolling officers.
"I've dealt with more people with
more dope than in the past," he
said. "If anybody has any idea why
— maybe there's just a great harvest
this year — I don't know why."
McGuire said the great majority
of students caught are underclass
men and said that many of them
are experimenting during their
first term or their first term back at
the University.
I licks said most of the people who
received citations had been contacted
by officers two or three times before
for drug violations. Also, many of
them were not cooperative, he said.

On Thursday, DPS Interim Director Tom
Hicks told the Public Safety Advisory Group
drug violations have increased significantly.
"I wonder if this big (Atkins Diet)
increase is pushing people away
from beer," ASUO Student Legal
Services Director Ilona Koleszar
said, drawing laughter from many
people in the room.
Also, DPS cited two people for
littering and two for urinating in
public. Both cases of public urina
tion occurred at the Civil War game,
but Hicks said he was unable to say
whether those cited were Beaver
fans or students at all.
