It seems like SDSU has a lot of alcohol poisioning/accident deaths occur... the school seems to turn a blind eye, and I really think students (not just greeks) need more education on binge drinking dangers.[/quote]


Does the school really turn a blind eye or is there just a limit to what they can reasonably do to prevent students from willingly participating in alcohol abuse? ( I am not speaking about this particular individual. The local news has only reported that the death is under investigation. )
The school has over 25K undergrads...most are well over 21, and it's primarily a commuter campus. Students who live in the dorms tend to be younger, but they don't usually live there for more than a year or two. A very small percentage of students actually live in greek housing at SDSU...it's far more popular to live in off campus apts, mini-dorms or out at the beach. SDSUChelle, do you know if all new students must participate in the substance abuse prevention program or just the greeks?

I'm terribly sad for this young woman, her family and Alpha Phi. Alpha Phi at SDSU has an excellent reputation.
