Well, if I'm understanding what you're saying, we've said for a long time in Delt that, at least in terms of alcohol, we're inheriting a lot of problems from kids who are starting to drink in high school, rather than in college and the fraternity.

You might want to take a look at the stats on eighth graders and HS seniors in the 56 Billion dollar problem thread.

On the other hand, we've managed to begin and perpetuate this hard drinking, hard partying image with which we've painted ourselves right into a corner.

Everyone would like to be able to have a glass of wine with dinner, but we've managed to get ourselves to the point that "dry" housing is likely to become absolutely necessary for our survival -- both in terms of liability and university and public relations.

If we had only understood moderation along the line, we probably wouldn't be having this discussion.
