On Wednesday, the University of Texas System board of begents unanimously adopted a zero-tolerance policy on hazing and binge drinking on all of its campuses.
The goal is to keep students safe and out of harm's way.
University of Texas San Antonio senior Jennifer Do is glad the policy was adopted. As a resident adviser, she's confident campus officials will be able to enforce it.
"It is a dry campus and a lot of the resident advisers, we keep track of who is 21 ... and cops do come and patrol every night," said Do.
The recommendations come from the school's task force on hazing and alcohol. The goal is to not only keep students safe but to help them feel that they don't have to go through hazing to be accepted into a group.
Last March, a fraternity hazing incident at UTSA ended with Sigma Phi Epsilon officially dissolved until August 2015 and at least three students arrested.
UTSA student Lee Kopp is skeptical about the policy but said monitoring student housing may help.
"If they just control the apartment areas, we'll be good," said Kopp.
According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, 4 out of 5 college students drink, and of college students who drink, about half also consume alcohol through binge drinking.
