[quote=Anonymous]Of course not. For lots of obvious reasons. But another to be mindful of is that it's the beginning of freshman year. No one knows anyone. For an 18 year old kid to show up at a dorm with parents bring cases of alcohol is going to lead to a rep that sticks with this kid for all four years. This is the party kid with the party family. Do you really want to burden your kid with that?

Plus the moment a RA senses some freshman is bring in booze on move-in day - which they will - it's straight to disciplinary action, which is a terrible way to start college. Cases of beer will be noticed. And if you're sneaking in vodka or whiskey, get ready for the hospital and subsequent investigations. No nervous 18 year old has experience with hard liquor and they will over-indulgence and go through all the consequences. All their parents are going to be pissed and some might go to litigation.

I genuinely can't think of a worse way to start college than the poor kid with parents supplying booze to a bunch of freshmen just out of high school.  [/quote]
