philintex-- its not necessarily that ppl have a choice, even sophomores-- a good number of people in wilson college who had draw times near the end had to go substance free because of lack of housing. When choosing between a 99 sf room in non-subfree and a 125 sf room subfree, the choice is pretty easy. The main issue was that this year, the 2 biggest buildings in wilson were zoned subfree, and clapp/27 which used to hold a lot of sophomores were zoned over half freshmen— poor planning on the part of the college, or they were trying to force everyone to go subfree, which will not happen.

also, while in some instances its true that a person goes in “knowing” that they will live a subfree lifestyle, and actually do live that way for all four years, a large percentage of ppl don’t live completely subfree. Whether its finally getting away and going crazy and getting really drunk and passing out, or a couple of beers at the street on a weekend night–only 3 ppl that i know have stayed completely substance free.
