Serving a teenager a glass of wine at Christmas dinner in your home is far different than giving an 18 year old a case of beer when dropping them off at their dorm.

Don’t care.
They want to drink they use their money.
Why in the world would any parent be this dumb?
Yes I know most kids drink I’m not even opposed but I won’t help them get it.

No. That never would have entered my head to do so and my kids would have been appalled.
I don’t know anyone doing this. Wasn’t a MD senator in trouble for buying his kid booze?

No. Many reasons. First, it's illegal.
Beyond that, this is not the 80's where everyone looks the other way (yes, my and friends' parents bought booze for our graduation parties at their homes). Off the top of my head, you could be liable criminally if your kid let's other drink your purchased booze at school. What if someone drinks, drives, and kills someone, and you provided the alcohol? Further, you could cause the dorm contract to be invalidated, based on the rules in the housing contract you agreed to if it's found in the dorm.
