Hold university students to a high standard TheRecord.com - LettertotheEditor - Hold university students to a high standard

Re: Trapped on Albert — May 1

Students at Waterloo’s two universities should be held to the highest of standards. Granting exemptions to noise bylaws (“party exemptions”) would mean that Waterloo is lowering its expectations of students.

Students, like any other member of the community, should be respected enough for the assumption to be made that they are capable of abiding by Waterloo’s bylaws. Failure to enforce these bylaws should be seen as an insult to the intelligence of our community’s students who are more than capable of following the city’s restrictions.

Waterloo must not lower its expectations of students. This is not fair to the community; nor is this fair to the student.
