freaking Merck, that's incredible. Now if only they would get one for men! Condoms don't work!

I heard about a male birth control pill too, how funny is that

In addition to this, think of the possibility of always having one person sober at all times, even if you aren't driving. Designated walkers (DW) instead of DDs are needed just as much. A group of drunk girls trying to walk across campus from a party is very difficult. Having atleast one sober person to get you all home, who can be alert and make sure you are all there is needed.

My roommate got left behind when walking home. It took us three hours to find her because she got confused and started walking the opposite direction of the dorms. All she did was take her shoes off and she couldn't see the group anymore. I'm just happy nothing bad happened to her.

Edited to add- I was at a large party school but no matter campus you are on you always need to be careful especially if you are drinking.

I definitely agree with this. I go to a small campus with the dorms within walking Distance of Fraternity Row. But any way, every time we have a mixer with an on campus sorority they would always have sober sisters to make sure nothing bad happened to the girls. I think it is a good idea to make sure somebody is looking out for you.
