BOULDER, Colo.—Enrollment at the University of Colorado is up—and so is the number of run-ins between police and students.
Officers say 351 people were ticketed for underage possession or consumption of alcohol during the first three weekends. That’s a 53 percent jump from last year.
Not all the scofflaws are students, but police believe the influx of people due to the university’s largest-ever freshman class is largely to blame.
University officials say a record 5,833 freshmen are enrolled on the Boulder campus this fall. Overall enrollment is 29,709, a 2.5 percent increase over last year.
