Borough PD Gets Serious

According to an article in the Princeton Packet earlier this week, Borough Police Lieutenant David Dudeck has said that, from here on out, the police will be taking  “a pro-active approach” regarding alcohol issues at the eating clubs.  Apparently, seven arrests and one hospitalization (that we know of!) in two weeks is cause for concern in the adult world.Whatever, doodski. According to the Packet, the police, along with the borough prosecutor, have been meeting with clubs to discuss ways of preventing further alcohol-related incidents. To what these discussions might lead, however, we do not know, and the details of this new-found pro-activity remain nebulous indeed. Given Princeton's long history of kids going a tad too hard, the fact that the article goes on to quote Dudeck as stating "we are down in enforcement just about across the board," and describes Boro PD as "understaffed," I'd wager that there's not an English major out there that can read those quotation marks book-ending "pro-active" without detecting a hint of sarcasm.Whether or not Princeton students will see the error of their ways, and what any of this will actually mean for Princeton's night life remains to be seen. Not to be fatuous and/or obnoxiously privileged, but I think I speak for many when I say that I have an excellent lawyer (thanks Dad!) and a pre-game in t-minus two hours. Arrest that, Dudeck!Image source: http://www.nvetv.tv/cops
