If kids are going to drive I would not offer them alcohol. I’d ask who is driving before pouring. You are liable, after all, both legally and morally. I think that erases any fears about hypocrisy.

But my personal observation is that kids get such easy access to alcohol at college that they are not likely to drink in your home, especially with their parents present. They will most likely defer, leave, and party together somewhere else – hopefully a final destination where they will spend the night.
