During TV coverage of all these college football games they zoom in to the student section and I see these young adults (who tend to be good-looking fraternity guys and sorority girls) super drunk in the middle of the day. All I can think of is the fact that there's over $1 trillion in student loan debt and counting. Sadly, when I was their age I went to a huge state university and bought into the nihilistic frat guy mindset. Now I just see the whole college culture as a tremendous waste of capital. Hopefully the college system goes the way of the Dodo bird.
Wait what? This vid is from College Humor... it's a farce... comedy... taking the mick!
Although, I've heard it said that in today's universities there's so much nonsense coming from the liberal arts department that student are better off spending their time drunk.
But seriously... better to get the ya ya's out during these years than later. Besides, you don't have to be in college to be stoned or drunk off yer az all day, lol! Ever see a bunch of college drop out 20 somethings who end up working in the restaurant/night club biz in the '80's? Ah hem... nothing to see here, move along...
I can always tell which guys either had no fun in college, didn't get invited to the best parties, couldn't get chicks or which guys never went to college at all.
Or...they went to a super lame college and are jealous of those of us that attended the top Party schools.
College was a blast, and I'd do it all over again in a heartbeat if I could. I feel sorry for those of you who missed out.
LOL
Does anyone else see the immaturity of this argument? It smacks of a teenager going on how cool the cool kids are. /facepalm
The kids with helicopter parents are always the ones that drink to excess and engage in all sorts of debauchery. Whether that's college kids or non-college kids, it's usually the same catalyst. How much cash they have at their disposal usually dictates how badly they behave.

'college' is a HUGE for-profit industry so their marketing revolves around the 'party' atmosphere.
Have you SEEN modern 'dorms'?! They're like luxury condominiums with all the amenities! No more cinderblock hovels with bunkbeds and communal showers...
Granted, I lived in a fraternity so had it better than most but even that place was a shack compared to new university housing.
I'm betting that the party atmosphere that we see is the same as it ever was - weekend binge drinking with maybe a wednesday thrown in for good measure
