College drinking factors in 1,400 deaths yearly. The newly released study also found an average of 500,000 injuries and 70,000 cases of sexual assault or date rape annually connected to college alcohol use.

My views about college drinking have changed drastically from my undergraduate fraternity days. As a hall director, I’ve had to make far too many ambulance calls (and had to deal with far too many unruly and rude assholes).
