You might want to slow your roll there before you've even finished 1/6 of law school.
Make a date with Wexis and check into 133 Idaho 388 or 987 P.2d 300 or 139 Ed. Law Rep. 643.
Idaho Code § 23-808 was key in the 1999 case and I'm assuming it is going to come up again as there is, sadly, a supreme court case on the topic.

Perhaps the 18 year old woman in the 1999 case had her first experience with alcohol the night she fell three stories (she had consumed alcohol in high school); but it is unlikely the 19 year old sophomore was trying alcohol for the first time in 2009. I'm not exactly sure which window she fell from as I'm not sure of where the third floor porch is as I never shacked in SAE or any other fraternity house; but I think it was either the three windows at the front of the back on the third floor. The front has concrete leading up to the front door and in front of the house, and the back has a concrete patio, if you will. They did a massive remodel a couple of years ago and took a tour during an open house. I remember a porch on the ground or second floor that is on the north side with the new fire exits. I only remember as they had triple bunk beds purchased from UI surplus that were welded together and were kind of amazing engineering wise.
