College Drinking

[TheDerek]

I go to a Christian college, and there is so much drinking here! My roommate and some of my wingmates are drunk right now, I just left them.

I'm not really looking for advice, just venting! Drunks are so annoying! Ack!

Two words for my college: Dry. Campus.

One of my classmates came back on campus wasted a couple weeks ago and he got suspended for this week. That's how strict we are.

 

[TheDerek]

Ha! We have a dry campus too . In the last two weeks two kids have been in the emergency room from doing stupid things while drunk.....

I hear you, only I'm going to the 2nd party school in the nation, Penn State, lol

God Bless

There are a lot of kids who wander off to college and make poor decisions related to alcohol use because they really have no experience with it. It's stupid, and irritating if you're sober (and even more so if your job is to make sure they don't die or anything), but they'll learn. Eventually.

On the upside, I got my hands on some really fresh bombers of one of my favourite beers. The hops are so much more present than they are once they;ve been sitting for a couple of months. Glorious.

Talk to them about respecting you and your belongings. I hate the drinking but mostly I hate the fact that they are not in control of themselves and might end up damaging something in the room, or inviting people in who might steal or damage property.

MY campus is pretty dry. But UW is pretty close by and I believe that's where most everyone goes to party

 

[TheDerek]

It's 2:12 am, do you know where your roommate is? Or where half of your wing is for that matter? Cause I don't!

ditto that Nienor. but I don't know how many kids actually go over to UW. I think that they'd get in pretty serious trouble if anyone found out about it...considering the agreement we signed...

of course...I can only speak for myself...

Yeah, the Lifestyle Expectations but a pretty big restriction on most party-type activities

 

[Ellesar]

that's true...

Drinking isn't that bad once in a while, but anything beyond that is simply incontinent. It usually reflects the kind of college student you are.

The only time I go out to drink are after my finals. mm.. good times.

I go out and drink every once in a while, I drank this past weekend after I went to a concert and an after party with a bunch of the bands that were playing that night... it was great. I probably go out about once a month if that.

My campus is "dry" but not really. My roomate keeps some of her alcohol in the fridge in our room...and there is some in the freezer in the kitchen. Thank goodness I'm not the only person in my appt. that doesn't drink, otherwise I would go crazy!!! But there really isn't much to do in York that doesn't involve drinking. When you think about it, it's cheaper to go to a kegger ($3) than go bowling...or to a movie. I, however, would rather stay in and play oogles of Halo on xbox with my other sober buddies. haha.

Thats how it is on my campus. It is dry, but there really isn't all that much to do besides go to a party, go to a bar or go to a club. When I lived on campus, my roommate and some of my suitemates had alcohol in the dorm... my roommate actually forgot he had alcohol there until our last day there.

I have no probablem drinking if you're the legal age (most aren't) and you do it responsibly, with a designated driver and all.

I go to a Christian school that has a no alcohol use policy, but it's not enforced strictly. People come back wasted all days of the week. And the RAs don't write them up because they drink too. Some of the RAs even lead the way to the parties...
