Student drin By College Press Service MADISON, WI ? Students at the University of Wisconsin-Madison ? j i? a: 1 ?,1 i c jvuu^u uy umiiu muu^iii^ iiumi across the state ? staged a mass "drink-in" on the steps of the state capitol last week to protest efforts to raise the drinking age there to 21. "We, as students, understand that we and our peers will not stop drinking because the law dictates that we do," proclaimed Dan Katz, legislative affairs directorforthe Wisconsin Student Association, which represents student governments from campuses around the state. The defiance of new drinking policies expressed by Katz and other students at the Wisconsin drink-in ? where the day's motto was "F--k 'em if we can't take a drink" ? has been echoed bv students around the nation over the last month. While some experts predicted tough new campus drinking regulations nationwide would cause some students unease as they learned new ways to socialize, it appears that many students are flaunting the regulations openly and at times even outwardly rebelling against them.

Indiana makes random checks in an attempt to enforce the new alcohol policy on that campus, where freshmen supposedly believe "that you come to IU to get drunk," says Dean of Students Michael Gordon. "Some very important people, including some students, staff and faculty, are willing to say, 'Ha, (the campus alcohol policy) is all a very funny joke,'" Gordon complains. That's evidently the feeling of some Notre Dame students, who last summer "kidnapped" a bust of famed football coach Knute Rockne to protest the school's drinking policy. Alone with a color nicture of the bust comfortably tanning at a nearby beach, the Notre Dame student paper has received a ransom note warning that the Roekne sculpture won't be returned 'til the students have their beer. Problems and complications with alcohol policies also are plaguing such schools as Fori Hays State University, Arizona State, St. Bonaventure and New Mexico, to name just a lew.

"We have two or three major things happening at the same time that arc making the alcohol problem greater, or at least more visible on a lot of campuses," he explains. For one thing, "students who may have hepn Hrinkinp lepallv off ramr>n<; are now transferring their drinking habits to the campus where new policies make drinking illegal." In addition, "many states are now raising their drinking ages to 21, creating displaced drinkers who have no place to drink except on campus," he says. Finally, Keller notes, "alcohol abuse has replaced drug abuse as the number one student behavior problem. And all these problems combined are really making alcohol an issue at many colleges and universities." The whole "gel tough" attitude toward student drinking, some believe, is only making the matter worse at many schools. ) 0 0 0\ "\ )\ ? REER ?
