>>>He was a walk-on so he doesn't have a scholarship and we fought a war about 150 years to settle that issue of indentured servitude
No war was ever fought to end "indentured servitude." Are you talking about slavery? That's like, ya know, a totally different thing.
>>College experience is more than just studying to get a job (and sports for some), it's about growing up and some of that means kids experiment and push boundaries as the part of the process to figure out who they are
Kids should grow up until the age of 18. After that they're adults, and if they're stupid enough to drink when it's illegal, they should face the consequences. Are you aware of the epidemic of under age drinking at colleges? Seems like several colleges a year have some idiot who gets drunk, then falls out a second story window and kills himself.
There's nothing to be proud of in t hat.
