Those were the nights in Halifax, as a young undergrad at King's College, starting at the Wardroom and ending at the Palace, with countless stops in between.

What is becoming of Halifax, Warden of Honour of the North, city of endless bars and taverns?

The Palace! What a fleapit.

But what they mean are faculty-sponsored events. Ultimately they don't want inebriated students lolling around wearing "Dal PolSci Drunkfest" t-shirts.

Drinking is a serious problem amongst university students

So is driving. And sex. And not studying. And cramming for exams.

to No. 6: Damned right! Notice how our northern 'cousins' mentioned how they didn't want anything going on there that they couldn't "control"? They're big on that #### up there, aren't they?

Driving can certainly kill. Sex can certainly kill. We have more deaths from suicides on campus than pub crawling.

but I am in favour of anything that reduces high school and college drinking.

How would a law restricting establishments who legally sell alcohol to those of age do anything to reduce high school drinking?

You left out the first part of my statement when you quoted me.

So? Why did you bring minors(high schoolers) into a discussion about adults(college kids)?

"Drunk students could fall and hurt themselves during pub crawls". Read: "You'll poke your eye out".
