[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We were just talking with some friends about this. Their DD was written up freshman year for drinking in the dorm. Not a party. Just a few friends in their room (they were all written up.) It wasn’t great - caused a bunch of stress.

There are on-campus events, which their DD and her friends like. But mostly they go out - restaurants and bars. Not cheap. [/quote]

They broke the law and the rules of the college. They were obvious enough about it that an RA had to write them up. Trust me that no RA wants to write people up and it only happens when you're being inconsiderate to others on the floor.

Did you not go to college? Everyone knows that you can get away with drinking if you are low key about it.

Yes I went to college. And I don’t know a single person who was written up for drinking in their dorm. Nor do my DH or our friends (the parents of the girl who was written up at Boston College.)

Our take is that it’s a super unusual thing to happen on a college campus. But our friends’ DD learned the hard way that BC is strict about underage drinking in their dorm dorms.

For some, that’s a great thing. They or their kids prefer to be at a school where laws prohibiting underage drinking are enforced on campus, including in the dorms.

For others, it’s not so great, in part because it pushes 19-20 year old kids who want to drink out of the dorms and out to the bars and clubs that accept fake IDs. [/quote]
