Welcome back Flingers,
For those of you who are Freshmen or lived under a rock last
year and haven’t heard of us, we exist to inform you of your rights and how to
avoid becoming entangled in legal trouble during Fling festivities. The BLCE
(Bureau of Liquor Control Enforcement) has teamed up with Penn yet again to “keep the event safe”
(read: confront anyone who’s visibly intoxicated, causing a nuisance, or openly
carrying liquor); however, this blog intends to guide you to make smart
decisions in order to avoid confrontation with officers and properly deal with them
if all else fails.
We will be consulting with legal professionals and educators
to provide you with the most accurate recommendations possible. Please note
that we are not lawyers, nor are we providing you with legal counsel. We are
just fellow Flingers offering the best possible advice to help everyone enjoy
the experience. It’s important to point out that the law is not black and white; interpretation of
the law is key and that is what will be provided.
So far we expect this year to have just as much uniformed
officer presence as the last, so we encourage you all to look through last
year’s posts to gain some initial guidance. Please email us with any questions
that haven’t already been answered at yrfling1@gmail.com.
Cheers,
ME & BW
