Caught on Campus

A couple friends and myself were recently caught smoking by the police, on my college's campus (In the parking garage). One of my friends and I were both given written arrests for Possesion of Less than 20g, a misdemeanor. We are working with the police department to have the charges dropped. I have two questions:
1. If the charges are dropped, can the school still take action against us?
2. Should I still get a lawyer in the event the charges aren't dropped?

I go to a public University in Florida.

Yes, and yes.

Yes, be sure of it. Yes, duh!

I don't know about Florida, but in Mississippi, get caught within 1500 feet of a church or school, its a FELONY, regardless of quantity.

Same rules here, Im not sure if University is differant, could you imagine all the arrests that would be made? That is a very good question. And Yes and Yes to the main posters questions. Always have a lawyer handy with his card easily availible in your wallet. Us Stoners need to be prepared :)

By "working with the police department" you mean snitching on the guy who sold you your weed, I assume...

Thats low man, dont go ratting on people just because YOU got caught smoking in a stupid place...

And just so you know, cops are fucking scum, there lying, your not gonna get shit dropped.

You should of known this prior and I'm sure you remember filling out a section on your financial aid paperwork about drug convictions.
