Police crackdown on UGA partying
Surge of UGA students arrested for partying, Uga named nation’s second coolest mascot
It seems the Athens-Clarke County police take Princeton Review rankings very seriously. In the two weeks since the University of Georgia was named the No. 1 party school in the nation, the number of UGA students arrested on drug and alcohol charges has tripled compared to recent years.
The campus newspaper reported last Friday that there have been 43 drug- and alcohol-related arrests made in the last two weeks. A year ago, there were just 15 arrests during the same two-week period. In 2008, this number was 13.
