Again, you are thinking in regards to PA laws. Again, I was just thinking outloud and continue to do so. But check out PSU's Code of Conduct. A couple of those things could be strewn against you and be grounds for discilpinary action. Again, remember, this is not PA laws. You do not have all the same rights...

Quote:
11. FAILURE TO COMPLY: Failing to comply with reasonable directives from University officials when directed to do so. Failure to provide identification or to report to an administrative office or, when reasonable cause exists, failing to leave University-controlled premises or dangerous situations when directed to do so by properly authorized persons, including police and/or other University staff. This charge may be added to other charges, e.g., when a student fails to leave a residence hall during a fire drill and refuses to leave when directed to do so by a University official.
Quote:
9. DISRUPTION OF OPERATIONS: Obstruction or disruption of classes, research projects, or other activities or programs of the University; or obstructing access to University facilities, property, or programs. Disruption is defined as an action or combination of actions by one or more individuals that unreasonably interferes with, hinders, obstructs, or prevents the operation of the University or infringes on the rights of others to freely participate in its programs and services (also see Policy Statement 1).
Quote:
14. DISORDERLY CONDUCT: Engaging in disorderly, disruptive, lewd or indecent conduct. The item includes but is not limited to: inciting or participating in a riot or group disruption; failing to leave the scene of a riot or group disruption when instructed by officials; disruption of programs, classroom activities or functions and processes of the University; creating unreasonable noise; or creating a physically hazardous or physically offensive condition.
Just saying...Judicial Affairs is not nice to students, even if they are just "accused" of a crime, like participating in a riot, and not found guilty, they will be suspended. Being found innocent in the state of PA courts doesn't mean squat to PSU. They make their own rules....
