Troubling alcohol toll

Seventy students at Harvard alone were hospitalized for alcohol poisoning.

Every year, 300 students die as a result of binge drinking. If these are our “best and brightest,” shouldn’t they know better?

Isn’t society responsible? Booze is the drug of choice and is perceived as being as innocent as the prescription drugs people use.

Who shows and tells students that booze and drugs are cool? They think making jerks and fools of themselves is great, and then they claim to be “responsible” drinkers.

Ask doctors how booze has prolonged the lives of our “best and brightest.”
