The same with a picture of someone holding up a beer bottle to their lips - they may not have even drank from it! It may have been an old beer bottle from 1992! And don't even get me started on PhotoShop.
That's kind of like cops trying to give you a DUI 2 days after you drove home. It just doesn't wash, and if any of these students were smart enough to know their rights the schools wouldn't have a leg to stand on.

"As of 2005, 15 states do not specifically ban underage consumption and an additional 15 states have family member and/or location exceptions to their underage consumption laws. Federal law explictly provides for religious, medical, employment and private club possession exceptions; as of 2005, 31 states have family member and/or location exceptions to their underage possession laws. "
Each state is different supposedly so while the purchase of the alcohol might be illegal, the consumption may be legal.
