as many of us know...ball state has had a new policy on underage drinking. basically, they are taking things seriously and cracking down on those who are participating in the activity and taking action. in recent news, a frat party was busted and around 100 students were underage drinkers and were definitely taken to court.
so, today, i was sitting down to eat my lunch, just like any other day...and i turn on mtvu. (basically mtv2, but geared toward college kids) they were doing a news segment on different colleges and their main focus today was on ball state's students going to court... as i watched different shots of the campus flash by, a familiar face came on the screen...actually 2 familiar faces. see, these girls went to school with me and graduated with me. one of them (bs) was a sweet girl...rather goody goody. we were friends for a bit. then the other (kh) was a bitch. she definitely went out of her way to avoid me. anyways, the point of the story...don't be a dumbass and end up on mtvu's daily news because of an underage drinking violation because you will be laughed at by many.

FC, all of the students got a pre-trial diversion..which means like 500$ a piece.

Psychedelics are illegal not because a loving government is concerned that you may jump out of a third story window. Psychedelics are illegal because they dissolve opinion structures and culturally laid down models of behavior and information processing.

Damn, $500*88 kids =$44,000
While that sounds like a lot, think about it this way. Assuming the average kid gets some aid during his 4 year carreer at BSU, $44,000 is probobly close to 4 years worth of tuition from 1 student. So while the local police department may have made $44,000, Ball State will have lost many many many times more than that in decreased enrolment in the future. Way to go BSU. |
