How does alcohol affect college students?

Alcohol is a big part of many colleges in todays society.  Alcohol consumption of college students has remained relatively unchanged the past 10 years.  Why are college kids so obsessed with binge drinking and getting drunk?  Not only is it illegal for most college kids, but it is also a financial tax on students and parents.  A lot of money is spent on alcohol and it is also responsible for paying for extra credits in some cases where drinking has interfered with studying and classes have been failed.  There are many different reasons kids drink in college and I'm going to try to understand these reasons.

  1. This is a good topic, with a lot of source material to draw upon. As you can imagine, I have had quite a few papers on this topic over the years and you might start by reviewing some of the approaches they took. You can get a sense of that from looking at their last blog posts. Here were two good ones:

    I found it useful to browse for recent books using Amazon.com.
