"Controlled environment" keeps cops at bayWINONA, Minn., Nov. 4, 2001 -- To Justin Budd, it's no surprise that his Pepsi House, a partying place for Winona State University students, has escaped being busted in the fall police crackdown on campus-area boozing. Budd said the key is "a controlled environment." At the Pepsi House, so-called because a lighted vending machine used to be on the porch, partiers are kept inside to muffle noise that might irk neigbors. About the crackdowns, Budd said: "All these new developments to stop house parties are only going to lead to kids drinking somewhere else." He expects the crack down will not stop partying but change it. "People who throw house parties will just have to change their ways so that they don't get caught," he said. The new Keg Law, aimed at banning multi-keg parties, is easily circumvented by buying cases of beer instead of kegs, he said. "Students need an escape from school pressures, and house parties can provide that, as long as it's done responsibly," said Budd.Reporter: Justin Hargraves Background: Thursday House cop-proof so farSpecial report: Cops & Kegs: College kids in trouble

Drunk WSU student hits head, to hospitalWINONA, Minn., Nov. 3, 2001 -- A Winona State University student, so drunk that he was passed out, was rushed to the hospital from a house west of campus. Friends called the cops after, they said, the man fell and hit his head. When cops arrived, the 20-year-old man was slumped in a lawn chair unconsious and covered in vomit. He was having hard time breathing, police said. At the Winona emergency room, doctors decided to send the man to St. Marys Hospital in Rochester, Minn., because of the head injury. Meanwhile, the cops busted the party, at 166 Olmstead, and ticketed four tenants. The four men, all Winona State students, ages 21 and 20, will be fined at least $500-plus if they don't contest the tickets.

| New York rescue project amazes profWINONA, Minn., Nov. 3, 2001 -- Television images of the World Trade Center disaster pale next to being there, said Winona State University social-work prof John Burdick, who spent two weeks there as a Red Cross emergency worker. "There was noise and an unusual smell. The impact it makes when you're there is incredible, nothing you can get from watching TV," Burdick said. In Winona, Burdick is disaster services chair for the Red Cross. In two weeks in New York, Burdick did most of his work on the Navy hospital ship Comfort, which had been dispatched to Manhattan for the emergency. "While I was there I saw the importance of having enough mental health professionals available to help the rescue workers and victims to not have long-term effects of being at Ground Zero," Burdick said. "I have been absolutely amazed with the amount of energy and the number of people coming to help out." Reporter: Rebecca DettmannBackground: Prof back from Ground Zero

The hearing will recreate a real-life case in which a 17-year-old incest victim complained that her privacy was violated by a newspaper's front-page coverage of her father's sentencing for sexual assault. Although not named in the story, the girl believes she was clearly identifiable. The mock hearing will be followed by a discussion of media ethics, said mass media prof Dean Beckman, who is making arrangements.Date: Nov. 8Time: 7 p.m. Place: Saint Mary's Hall 332Cost: Free
