I wish people didn’t drink so damn much.
I’ve seen no good come from it in my life experience.

The problem at colleges is worse now with the 21-year age limit, because it forces drinking off campus, to parties where there is no supervision. If there had to be drinking at college parties, it was safer when it was relegated to the campus.

And, if the freshmen and sophomores are caught, they face having a legal record follow them around for the rest of their lives.

Even a mother in New England who permitted a party at her house where beer was served, with close supervision (including no driving afterwards), found herself in trouble with the law because her guests were legally underage. (Whereas, if she had just let them party elsewhere with no supervision, she’d have been just fine as far as the law was concerned—no matter how much less safe that would have been for everyone else.)
