just to clarify something in case any of you reading this happen to go to ann arbor and light up...
i think the current fine is $25 now a days, it got raised about4 years ago, i think.
but here's the kicker... the really important part...
if you are caught on U of M's campus with marijuana by DPS (campus police), they are required to charge you under state law. and then you're fucked.
that change happened back in '98 or '99... i can't remember which, but the pot heads in my frat were a little worried about it. some of the best advice one of them ever gave me if i was going to smoke up at hash bash was "if you see a DPS guy trying to come arrest for smoking, run. run until you find a Ann Arbor cop and turn yourself in." words to live by, yo.
