Brock U Telling Students Don't Put the Bad in Badger As St. Paddy's Day Approaches

Brock staff and NRP going door to door promoting safe celebrations

With St. Patricks Day just two days away, both Brock University and Niagara College are urging students to behave. 

 As the day approaches Brock University and its Students’ Union have partnered with Niagara police and local municipalities to take a proactive approach in local neighbourhoods that have large student populations. 

Brock staff and NRPS officers have been going door to door to promote safe and responsible celebrations as part of the Don’t Put the Bad in Badger campaign. 

Brock is also paying for additional NRPS officers to assist with neighbourhood patrols on St. Patrick’s Day and the weekend that follows.  

Niagara College, meanwhile, says students looking to celebrate the day are encouraged to attend a campus-sponsored event or go to a pub or local popular commercial venue.  

The college says students who do choose to have a party at an off-campus house should talk to their neighbours beforehand, and make sure revellers stay inside.
