If You Are Arrested

If Denison Security stops a driver for suspicion of operating a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or other drugs, Granville police will be called, and the driver could then be arrested if the situation warrants. All state laws pertaining to drinking and driving apply on campus. While most convictions can be expunged from a record, DUI cannot.

Subsequent Arrests

Fines and other sanctions for second offenses are almost always much stiffer in both Mayor's Court and Municipal Court. If a student has been convicted or has pleaded guilty to an offense, s/he would be wise to talk with someone about making the necessary changes to avoid any future court involvement.

University Sanctions If You Are Arrested Off Campus

In some cases, students are sanctioned on campus for offenses which occur off campus. Offenses such as DUI, Assault, or felonies usually involve disciplinary action by the university.
