Even in low binge-level schools, where less than 37 percent of students engaged in binge drinking, those numbers were, respectively, 42 percent and 15 percent. "We should give the universities support [to counter bingeing] through the [non-bingeing] students who are negatively affected," said Dr. Henry Weschler, a School of Public Health researcher. The survey also uncovered a high rate of drinking and driving. Over a 30-day period, 34 percent of college men drove after drinking alcohol. In the same time span, 24 percent of college women drank and drove...

...covers two sections of the Constitution. Proponents of term limits will highlight Article I, Section 4, which they say gives each state the authority to prescribe the "time, place and manner" of congressional elections, therefore delegating to the local level the rules of who gets to run.
