Dear Editor,
I am an older student, and my drinking days have been over for about 12 years because I saw it as a waste of time because I was drinking merely to present myself to others as a fun-loving person. That tactic never worked at getting real friends, and instead I got a lot of false friendships that were over as abruptly as they began. I began to see the drinking scene as a deception, so I lost interest in these frothy urine-flavored concoctions that I hated just to get people's approval.
I am not a goody-goody of any sort. Some Christians at our fine college may even contend that I am Satan herself, and they may be correct - but I digress.
So why do people drink? What makes it worth the risk of arrest and disciplinary action from the school? I feel that this is not just a Ball State problem, but it spans over to the work world and across the nation.
