Instead of bemoaning drinking, colleges should take every opportunity to point out that the movie, Animal House, is not reality. The percentage of their classmates that get blitzed on weekends is in fact very low. Here at the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh 30% of our students don’t drink alcohol at all. And of those that do drink alcohol, 65% report having 5 or fewer drinks a week.
