 Subject: MASSMAIL - Unofficial St. Patrick's Day

Dear Students,

As your student body president, I am reaching out to you at this time in regards to Unofficial St. 
Patrick's Day, which has been an event highly celebrated on our campus for the past several 
years. I am writing in hopes of providing some information that will help you make more 
informed decisions and keep safe, regardless of what you choose to do on Unofficial.  

I have been involved with the campus and community safety planning for Unofficial, and 
University administration and local law enforcement have made it clear that they are extremely 
committed to ensuring that safety and respect of our campus, community, and institution are a 
priority.  

This is a friendly reminder that it is important to understand and abide by the Student Code of 
the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign to avoid any trouble, not only on Unofficial, but at 
all times.  Here are just a few violations that may be relevant around this time:
   -Behavior which disrupts classroom activity or other normal University function
   -Possession of a false ID or the ID of another in order to enter a liquor establishment or to 
     purchase alcohol
   -Furnishing alcohol to minors
   -Being intoxicated in the roadway or not practicing pedestrian safety 

Although the temptation may be high, I would also suggest that you do not walk around with 
open containers or overload or toss objects off balconies. Violation of the student code and/or 
state and local laws could result in civil or criminal proceedings, as well as dismissal from the 
University.     

Please know that the intent of this email is to not scold or lecture you, but a reminder to be safe 
and avoid any detriment to yourself or others in the community.  If you do see someone in need 
of assistance, I encourage you to do the right thing and help him or her out. Local law 
enforcement will be looking out for our best interests and you can be confident that you will not 
be punished for helping others.  

Be safe, look out for each other, and I'll see you around campus!
