Since 1989, an effectively written federal law has required colleges
and universities to seriously address underage and excessive alcohol use
on campus. The circumstances behind Kristine Guest's tragic
death seems to be the first time that the US Department of
Education has directly considered a college's compliance with
the law.
The first two columns contain links which
describe the law and applicable regulations as well as explores reasons
why the law has not resulted in effective change. The third column
provide the tragic consequences on one small campus, 5 student deaths
in two years, that resulted from lax enforcement of the statute. |

"The
institution should provide maximum opportunities for
students to live in an alcohol-free environment and to engage in
stimulating, alcohol-free recreational and leisure activities."
