Oh my.
This man was 25 years old. It's a good reminder that those of us who are of legal drinking age are still susceptible to alcohol poisoning and alcohol-related death.
But still, his mother's lawsuit makes me angry. Would she be suing his friends if it had happened while he was out w/ them on a Friday night after work? Would she have sued the bar that served him the alcohol?
I guess she feels the need to blame someone, and trying to find the university and Sigma Nu as negligent is her recourse.
Quote from the Mom: "Local and national fraternities, however, must come to grips with their responsibilities regarding binge drinking and systemic abuse of alcohol on college campuses. This is a growing problem that is affecting young men and women nationwide."
This is a grown man who, at the time of his death, had been away from college for two years. I think this is a bit ridiculous.
