    The New York Times had a cover article about changing tactics of college
    regarding binge drinking. It discussed how dispite efforts to portray
    drinking as "bad" with inages of drunked students covered in vomit, etc,
    it could be seen as counter productive because it labelled drinking in
    college as right of passage, which could perhaps explain why binge
    drinking levels have not gone down despite these programs.

    Very interesting article, probably accessible through
    http://www.nytimes.com
    if anyone is interested.
