<p>I am sure there was disciplinary action by the school, but this involved the death of one of their students who died off campus - how could the police NOT be involved in the initial investigation of that death? And it was as a result of that investigation that the state determined there was enough evidence to prosecute. Crimes such as the ones Ravi was charged with can and often are dealt with both through the school and the courts; the fact that you are a college student subject to disciplinary proceedings by your school does not shield you from criminal prosecution (and this is specifically stated in the Rutgers code of conduct).</p>
