Please do not put all Wake students in your “drunk cheater box”. My son a current freshman is neither one. Why don’t you go to the campus paper "the old gold and black "and read about the students who gave up their spring breaks to do service work for the underpriviledged. Or read about the campus wide event called Wake and Shake and how the proceeds raised go to fight cancer. Doesn’t that tell you something about the character of the students that attend there? Do college kids drink, Yes but to classify all students as irresponsible drunks is just…well… irresponsible. Didn’t you go to college? I went a long time ago and drinking was everywhere. Part of growing up is making responsible choices and sometimes, yes, sometimes you make a mistake (which I hope is how the kids who drank too much and had to be medically treated feel). The actions of a few do not in any way represent a majority. If students didn’t make mistakes there would be a “perfect college”. If you know of one, please let me know, I have a daughter that will be looking soon…
