TCU has handled the unfolding drug arrests very professionally and is minimizing the crisis by their swift response. Less than two hours after 16 students were arrested TCU's Chancellor Victor Boschini stood in front of local news cameras and gave a public statement describing exactly what had happened and TCU's actions of expelling those students involved. Dr. Boschini stated "These students are charged with acting in a manor that is incompatible with TCU values, against the code of student conduct and against the law. That is simply unacceptable and such reported behavior is not tolerated at this University."

TCU's swift action of putting the highest ranking official immediately in front of the camera was the best move the could have done. They took accountability for the "bad apples" as they were called and immediately talked about their school's disciplinary action. Within the day other administrators including Vice Chancellor for student Affairs Kathy Cavins-Tull, head football coach Gary Patterson, and Athletics Director Chris Del Conte. Although this is a black eye for the TCU community due to the administrations swift actions they got in front of the story and have made a strong stance against these students actions. As more arrests are expected it now falls into the administrations lap to continue to stay in front of this story and keep TCU's image intact.
