Just days after a publication named it the nation's top party school, the University of Florida officially proposed dramatic changes to its campus code of conduct that include bans on kegs and drinking games, the Gainesville Sun reported Aug. 6.

A committee made up of faculty, staff and students began efforts to redraft the code of conduct in 2006, but the announcement of the proposals has achieved some added resonance in the wake of the Princeton Review's designation of the university as the top party school in the country.

Among the proposed policy changes would be a ban on student possession of containers that commonly hold alcohol, such as kegs and beer balls. Activities centered around rapid consumption of alcohol also would be prohibited.

The regulations also would add possession of drug paraphernalia and sniffing of glue or paint to the list of campus drug violations. The code also would incorporate tougher regulations governing sexual consent.

Patricia Telles-Irvin, the university's vice president for student affairs, said that while the school has no plans to extend the regulations in a blanket fashion to students living off-campus, the code could apply in extreme situations where injuries or property damage occur off-campus.

The university's board of trustees could rule on the series of changes as soon as September.
