UW-SP POLICY QUESTIONED AFTER POT USE, DRINKING AT CONCERT

A student-run concert last weekend at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point followed school policy, despite featuring beer but no campus police, officials said.

Concert coordinators scheduled eight student ushers to work at Saturday's concert that drew more than 500 people to the University Center.  A catering service sold beer inside using a wristband system.

The lack of security resulted in underage drinking and marijuana use, said students who came to see a Minneapolis band, The Big Wu.
