Binge drinking isn't acceptable in the real world
Drinking is a big part of the college experience. Yes, some students may not drink, but most social settings in college are associated with alcohol.
And once you're a senior, drinking becomes an even bigger past time. You're finally 21, you have a lighter course load and you're stressed about the future. Of course having a leisurely glass of wine seems harmless, but most seniors, and college students, take drinking to the extreme.
"College Students and Binge Drinking: When a Rite of Passage Becomes a Path to Destruction" from U.S. News & World Report explains that binge drinking in college is a common weekend past time that students use to fit in and gain friends. While it may be fun, this kind of drinking can put students in danger and create bad habits.
As a senior, it's fun to have the freedom to drink on week days. It's your last year of college and probably the last time you'll be able to drink so freely, so why not? But don't let these habits follow you into the real world—getting blackout drunk on a Tuesday probably won't impress your boss.
