Tell me college is more than [View All]

[Lizz612]

studying your ass off and then getting drunk.

What prompts this is I got back to my dorm and a girl was in the front office with a public safety officer, puking in a trash can. And everyone seems to shrug and say "ahh, well... its college."

So that you don't freak out, I'm not feeling any pressure to drink, I hang out with good kids. But this culture of drinking for the sake of drinking by otherwise intelligent people just seems so overwhelmingly STUPID!

The thing is I KNOW that’s its more than that, I was coming back from a lecture by Neitze Fellow Professor Josiah Ober of Princeton University “Patriot or Traitor? Socrates of Athens and the Ancient Struggle Between Political Criticism and Citizenship” and a few of us stayed behind and talked to him for over an hour about Socrates and people who challenge our basic assumptions about life. It was really neat.

But still, that girl puking in a trash can cause she was so smashed...
Really I just need someone to tell me that I'm not crazy for thinking that that girl was acting really stupid.
