<p>Thank you for the input, class11dad. My son doesn’t have problems hanging out with drinkers, but he thinks it would be nice to have some non-drinking friends as well, and he’s certainly found that they can be hard to find (it’s not like you walk up to a new potential friend and first thing say "hey, do you drink?) That is one of the reasons he’s very interested in the substance-free dorm.</p>
