Binge Drinking on College Campuses

Thanks to partner Steve Herman, Winnebago County Sheriff Deparment, for his comittment to our cause. He shared this article. Click on link to view in its entirety.

Summary: 60 Minutes, CBS's weekly newsmagazine (link was posted in an earlier TFDFC blog), aired a story on underage drinking focused on the significant problem of binge drinking on college campuses but did not include peer-reviewed scientific data showing lives are being saved.
