Fewer students charged with alcohol violations at this year’s Spring Fling

Fewer students charged with alcohol violations at this years Spring Fling

The University Police Department logged eight liquor law violations in University Yard during Spring Fling on Saturday, four fewer than last year.

Fourteen students across campus were charged with liquor law violations between 5 p.m. Saturday and 2 a.m. Sunday, compared to 19 students who were charged with liquor law violations on the night of last year’s concert.

About a hundred students turned out Saturday to see rapper Jay Sean, compared to the several hundred students who packed the yard for hip-hop artists Macklemore and Ryan Lewis.

That show also turned rowdy, with officers arresting a student for assaulting two UPD officers who denied him access to the concert.
