Not just Greeks, but young adults need to get more serious about who they're serving alcohol to. This can literally destroy your life if the person can't handle what they're drinking (and the word is full of 17 year olds who think they can and wind up passed out, because their experience with alcohol is more limited than they'd care to admit).

If you're there and you're 21...it's a lot of problems. That's why by the time I was 21, we just went to the bars. It's a fine line to walk, but having legal charges or a lawsuit isn't worth it.

The unintended consequences of taking away beer at 18. At 18, beer acted like training wheels. Today, Mix in flavored hard liquor and you have big problems. These kids can drink the hard liquor faster than they can metabolize it.

The 21 drinking age is so ridiculous, IMO...so much of what happens on college campuses is related to this in one form or another.
