Hypocrisy is when someone does something he advises (or legislates) against others doing.

To parse, if a legislator passes one law for students on a campus he doesn't visit, but passes better law for himself in places where he IS likely to be, then that might be hypocritical.

Perhaps we can agree on 'inconsistent?' =)

It’s a double standard. One set of rules for colleges and another for everywhere else, even if the age ranges of the clients are equal. Why are college students somehow inferior or less responsible than the general population? (I thought people who went to college were supposed to be role models for others, not deserving of contempt or patronization.)
