The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

A Bad IR I was walking down the hall when I heard loud music coming from 234. I knocked and told the residents to turn down the music and asked for their blugolds. They might have been drinking and were cooperative.

An Ugly IR Mr. Josh had rounds a few days ago. I walked around Towers and heard some people having a good time. They wouldn’t open up, so I had to grab the key to open it for them. I saw that they had some half empty bottles of beer and told them that I would have to take those for evidence. I grabbed a few of the residents id’s but not all of them said they were drinking and a few were passed out so I told them they weren’t going to be in trouble. I then told the residents that were drinking that they were in so much trouble, but if they made a few of my bulletin boards and cleaned up the puke that I left on 10th floor they would be off the hook. A few floors down I saw a group of freshmen doin the same thing as the last people and had to write them up too. I gave them the same deal as with the other residents and they accepted too. This group only had a few empty bottles so I said they could keep them for decoration if they wanted. Other than that it was a pretty quiet night and all of my bulletin boards were made.

A Good IR At approximately 4:30am the duty cell rang for the RA on Duty Braden Krien. RA Krien answered the duty cell and was informed by an anonymous resident that there was a lot of noise coming from room 230. RA Krien left his room and went to room 230. As soon as he entered the 2 East cube, he heard loud music coming from room 230. This was at least four doors away. As he got closer room 230, RA Krien also heard the sound of glass bottles clinking and smelled alcohol. He waited for a minute as he heard a male voice yell, "shots, shots, shots, shots," and the sound of a female voice laughing. RA Krien then knocked on the door and announced himself as the RA on Duty. The loud music continued and the door did not open after a minute so RA Krien knocked and announced himself louder. Then the music was immediately turned down and the door opened about two inches. Resident John Donne peaked out and quickly stated that he was sorry and that he knew it was quiet hours and that they would immediately turn the music down and that they would not be a problem again. While Resident Donne was talking, RA Krien noticed that his eyes were red and that he was slurring his words. Before RA Krien could say anything, the door immediately closed. RA Krien knocked on the door and again announced himself as the RA on duty. The door again opened about two inches and resident Donne asked what the problem was as they were turning the music down. RA Krien explained that it was long after quiet hours and that he was going to need to document the violation of quiet hours. RA Krien explained that he was going to need to get the Blugolds of everyone in the room and that he was going to document the situation and what happened for the Hall Director to follow up on. RA Krien then asked Resident Donne to open his door and have everyone in the room give RA Krien their Blugolds. Resident Donne responded by asking if that was really necessary and RA Krien responded that it was. Resident Donne consented and opened the door while he retrieved his Blugold. At this point RA Krien was also able to see that Resident Jane Eyre was sitting on the bed on the west side of the room. Resident Eyre's eyes were also bloodshot and she appeared confused when RA Krien asked her for her Blugold. RA Krien asked resident Eyre for her Blugold and this time she understood. RA Krien took down both of their ID numbers and also asked to see their garbage and recycling bins. Resident Eyre asked why that was necessary and RA Krien explained that he had reason to believe that they had been drinking that evening. Resident Eyre rolled her eyes and brought the garbage and recycling cans to the door. In the recycling bin were two shot glasses and a half-empty bottle of Jack Daniels. RA Krien explained that he was also going to need to document them for underage drinking. After asking if they had any questions, RA Krien asked if they had any other alcohol in the room. Both resident Donne and resident Eyre insisted that they did not and then RA Krien told resident Donne that RA Krien needed him to take the recycling bin with the alcohol in it and follow him to the custodial closet where resident Donne would dump it down the drain. At this point RA Krien asked Resident Eyre if she had any final questions and, after resident Eyre said that she did not RA Krien suggested that she go back to her own hall. Resident Eyre left and RA Krien escorted resident Donne to the custodial closet where he dumped the alcohol down the drain and recycled the bottle. RA Krien then asked resident Donne if he had any questions and resident Donne said that he did not. RA Krien then suggested that Resident Donne get some sleep and told him that the hall director would be in contact with him via email. RA Krien then left resident Donne on the second floor and went to the hall director's office to write up the incident.
