It's not a "drinking" thread.
Excessive drinking is just one of many reasons why college profs face at
least as serious discipline problems as their K-12 counterparts...that's what
the thread's about. Other reasons: college kid is away from home and
parental control for first time in life, unlike HS kid; college kid is in a
school with (usually) no mandatory daily attendance rules.
