point well-taken that there’s a big difference between drinking (I’m cool with that) and binge-drinking. That to be me is the issue. And I truly think that some campuses are centers of binge drinking more than others…
hey, on the idea that raising the drinking age dramatically reduced drinking on college…it did reduce fatal car accidents for 18-22-year-olds but fatal car accidents are down for every age group…cars are safer. So there may no be cause & effect there. On the bigger topic, 65% of kids now drink in college…which is higher than it ever was when it was legal… an interesting viewpoint here http://www.techtimes.com/articles/10652/20140717/pros-cons-raising-legal-drinking-age-30-years-later.htm
i was among the very last class that drank legally…I believe it was a smarter system…it made it less alluring.
