University of Delaware Police and Newark Police will be conducting joint patrols on the campus and in the neighboring community this weekend to promote safety and to respond quickly to any issues involving over consumption of alcohol and disorderly conduct, the university announced. 

During the night  of Friday, Sept. 7, police will be responding to any reports of underage drinking and noise violations. After the kickoff at Delaware Stadium on Saturday, Sept. 9, they will be patrolling the main campus area, as well as focusing on unruly gatherings in the community.

This initiative is part of a new cooperative project involving Student Wellness and Health Promotion, UD Police and Newark Police.
