...Harvard students, we often find ourselves wandering the streets of Cambridge on Saturday nights bemoaning the lack of good parties and wishing there was something else to do besides attend another kegger in Mather or a rager at the Delphic. But now, with local restaurant Fire and Ice opening a new nightclub, you’ll now have one more option...
...sights and smells of autumn. The changing leaves. The cool crisp air. In Munich, Germany, these would be signs that Oktoberfest was sneaking up, not that the world's largest festival, a two-week kegger, is too easy to miss...
...calls to action make it sound as if America's high schools have become one enormous kegger, but in fact alcohol use among high school students has fallen dramatically.

Roughly 47% of this cohort had been drunk at least once in 1991; in 2007 only 38% had ever been drunk. On college campuses, meanwhile, the ranks of nondrinkers are rising steadily...

(I doubt most of us stay up late at night worrying about having too many Nobel Prize winners at our next kegger.) Other advice is simply useless, such as “Don’t Take Up Golf.” Watson does occasionally hit the mark, but his pronouncements mostly induce eye-rolling and a fervent desire to know why a man who has done so much in his life could...
