York Regional Police weighed in on the issue of frosh week on Wednesday, offering a list of unexpected expenses new university students should be aware of if they partake in activities officers have seen in the past. Among them: "Forcing a pet to smoke marihuana," "starting a bonfire with a dorm room sofa" and "dropping excessive bass at 4 a.m."
Any of those indiscretions would cost guilty students anywhere from $5,000 to jail time, according to the region's "Frosh Week Expense List."
The list, distributed on social media, reminds students "frosh week is extremely fun, but can also be extremely dangerous. And we're not talking about the cost of your textbooks or varsity sweater. These are a few activities considered to be college rituals. Just remember, they may end up costing you your grocery money. Party with caution."
Prank-calling a history professor is also on the list of offences and may cost students up to $5,000 and a history credit. Putting cement mix in the laundry machine can cost $100 to $5,000 — a hefty price for a load of laundry. Also, playing high stakes poker in the garage could mean jail time or a lost college fund.
The police force clarifies that the list is not a legal document and is intended to inform post-secondary students of the potential consequences for breaking the law.
Staff Sgt. Rob Bentham of York Regional Police was unaware of the list, released earlier in the day, and couldn't think of any frosh-related incidents just yet.
"We have a few small colleges in our area, but traditionally we don't have many incidents related to frosh week," he said. "I haven't seen or heard of any this week."
