FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Press Release) San Antonio, Texas, United States of America September 8, 2010 -- Most adults have at least tried alcohol. Most adults also, try their best to drink responsibly. However, Alcohol is dangerous for new young adults, especially ones newly entering college. People know that being highly intoxicated is not funny and it is risky. That over doing it with your alcohol consumption can land you in the hospital or worst, the morgue. Yet every school year starts with a young adult and an alcohol tragedy. For young adults who have found their new independence, alcohol is a temptation that is often abused.

Alcohol Abuse and College Students
For instance, school has only been in session for two weeks now. Right before the first week of classes began, two pledges of a sorority at the University of Texas were found passed out. They were lucky that they were found when they were and were able to receive medical treatment for their alcohol poisoning. Last week a New Mexico State female student was hauled to the emergency room from drinking too many shots of vodka. Research shows that every year there are 1,825 deaths due to alcohol for people ages 18-24. Alcohol is a serious problem among college students.

What can be one?
Well, many people suggest that the college students should act like adults. Colleges usually make transfer students and freshmen take an alcohol awareness orientation. Other schools have started to hold more Friday classes to prevent the early start of partying. Also some universities are increasing the amount of alcohol free activities on campus to provide the students with non alcohol options for entertainment. Alcohol abuse is a problem and a public safety concern. So what is an option when these remedies from the school are not working?
