Solution To College Binge Drinking?

Naomi Shavin @ 'The New Republic' thinks the way to curb binge drinking a colleges is to sell alcohol on campus.OMG could Naomi be more off base. Colleges offering drinks below market prices is practically an endorsement for young minds to pickle their brains. I would imagine 'pot' sales wouldn't be far behind either. Why not gambling tables. How about a hookah lounge while we're at it?

Here's a few more reasons why this is a really bad idea. Putting the college in line for liability lawsuits. Students showing up to classes half in the bag. Getting young women intoxicated by their male counter parts. Beer makers competing for sales by lowering wholesale prices. Then there's the issue of underage drinking by both those on and off campus with false ID's. To name a few.

A college/university's job is not only to educate young impressionable minds but also to be better citizens. Booze doesn't go towards achieving such a goal.

If there is a problem with binge drinking how is offering easier access at lower prices in any conceivable way a solution?
