Re: Re: Boston Police Close Down Party - Underage Drinking (Delta Upsilon, MIT)

In other news - One of the HS guys is in Delta Upsilon @ MIT.

and another comment - parties like that happen all the time here ( bridgewater state ), and sometimes cops just dont give a damn. throngs of underagers just walk out of the houses past the cops and peace out. you can't really get in trouble unless you're severly intoxicated and it shows, you're fighting, or they actually see you with a drink in your hand.

thank god I'm 21 now.
There is some decent stuff in the Herald, and a couple of good writers. The whole thing isn't trash (although the Snelgrove picture was over the edge).

As far as stuff like that happening all the time - houses are generally more careful, especially when they are right in the middle of the city (as this house is), and the Boston police generally has no patience for underage drinking. It's an upscale section, and the neighbors aren't too welcoming of college parties in general.

Maybe the Boston police have become more understanding, but I remember them being quite strict with this sort of thing.
