trolled alcohol use and service.
Mr. Burden stated that the indi-
vidual student must be aware of the
criminal repercussions which flow
from drinking and driving. Not only

1990's, students must take a long
hard look at their own drinking
habits and administrators must do
the same with respect to sanctioning
