are unannounced fire drills in dorms a bad idea?

I daresay that a good majority of kids in college do not yet know how to be fully fledged “adults”, and especially in our society of helicopter parents and whanot.

I wholeheartedly agree, there’s not a chance I would describe any of my fellow college students as “adults”, let alone “full fledged adults”. But by 18+ years, people are smart enough to know what to do in the event of a fire alarm. They do not need drills.
