Immediate Action: RA knocks on door and announces themselves as the RA. If alcohol is seen in the room, the RA will inform the residents that it's a policy violation and they will need to document the situation.
Second Action: RA asks residents to bring all alcohol to the center of the room and produce their CIA ID, or state ID in order to identify each individual in the space. RAs will need to write down the information for all individuals present to include in the IR.
Third Action: RA will take pictures of all the alcohol in this space. These pictures will be attached to the incident report. These pictures will also help in writing a report that lists all of the alcohol found (brands, quantities, containers, etc.)
Fourth Action: RA will instruct residents to dump out the alcohol and escort residents to recycle/dispose of the containers outside of the room (preferably a floor trash room or dumpster).
Reporting Action: RA On-Call documents the situation with an incident report.
Additional Information:
● RA contacts CPD when…
○ The situation/party is too large or non-compliant.
○ Residents or guests fail to produce identification.
● All residents must have their CIA ID with them at all times. ID cards are the property of the university and therefore must be provided to staff upon request.
● All guests must have their ID with them at all times.
● It is important to document who was in possession of alcohol, cups, or containers at the time of the incident (either through visual observation or admittance). This information should be included in your IR, and is a crucial portion of the procedural review meeting that most likely will follow.
