that's a tough blow to get arrested on the first weekend
Doesn't the bar that serve him drinks get in trouble for letting minor drink in first place? How old do you have to be to drink in Iowa City?Don't they check your id at the door?
Wow! Look at this? Perfect grammar and punctuation. Whats wrong blue? You feeling okay?
You know, I don't want to be PSU, but I gotta think the UI police and a GA could have talked the kid down and got him to bed. Just seems like there could be a system set up to address these freshmen first time offenses.
Seriously, these kids have been bombarded with media that makes it look like college students are supposed to binge drink with abandon. This is why they have social norms campaigns to adjust these beliefs.
I say take the kid's info, get them to bed and then make go to a few harm reduction meetings.
His floormates suck. Who lets their power forward fall asleep on the bathroom floor? These are 18 year-olds from Creston, Urbandale, and Ottumwa, right? Be an Iowan. CARRY. HIM. TO. HIS. BED.
Great way to start your career at Iowa! We don't need him anyways. We have more than enough talent at the 4 position.
Terrific insight!
Yeah, that was before IC became a police state. I remember the day when you could get caught for underage drinking and the officer would make you pour out all of your brew and give you a ride home. Not even a citation. There is no more right of passage, you are a CRIMINAL!!!!!I miss the days when a Frosh could pass out in the dormitory pisser without getting arrested.
How is it legal to issue a public intox citation in Hillcrest dorm which is a private property (UofI)? Did the UofI public safety issue it? Wondering the the police followed him to the dorm. I'm not sure the Iowa City police can enter to issue the ticket.

Hit the nail on the head this time, Oates......What kind of society do we live in when the police punish people just for breaking the law?
