Are there any "wet campuses"?

UW-Madison supposedly isn't. (actually if you're 21 and don't have any minors in the room and your door is closed, you can. I was the only person besides the HF last year that was 21+ but I don't drink so I forgot about that)

Last year our housefellow (RA) was drinking with students in their rooms though, so might as well be.

Yeah, if you were 21 you could drink in the dorms here at Madison too, but the housefellow drinking was all with 18-19 year olds.

It really depends on your housefellow / RA I think. Some don't care and others wont tollerate anything they know about.

University of Guelph had a draft beer tap right beside the soda machine in the cafeterias when I first started there. The canned beer was right below the pop in the cooler. People were going through 3 meal plans a semester. "yea mom, I have been eating tons".

Michigan State University is wet... if you're 21 there is no stopping you. It used to be even more wet... back when the campus police couldn't do anything about it.

Rice University is a wet campus. The alchohol policy is very student friendly. Last year a campus police officer (they are real Houston cops, not just rent-a-cops) walked in on a party I was at - an 18 year old was doing a keg stand, and all that happened was we offered the officer a turn on the keg and she laughed and left. Some of them hang out with students when they are off-duty. Its a good way for things to be. Student drinking is tolerated so nobody is afraid to get help when someone drinks too much.

NDSU is a dry campus but I'd say there's a lot of drinking - including underage. For some reason there's a strong obbession over getting extremely wasted. The area has seen several deaths from people drinking way too much. I know this year some chick almost died from doing vodka through a bong. I really don't enjoy hard liquor at all or getting wasted - I've never thrown up and I don't care to ever make love to a toliet for hours.

It's pretty hard to get cought for underage drinking unless you're doing something else stupid in the first place. The punishments aren't that bad either, at the larger parties the crowd is told to leave and the owners of the house or what not get yelled at...

If you are 21 you can drink in your dorm at UF. There are city ordinances against open containers so you can't just walk around campus with a beer, but feel free to have one in your dorm.

Well no campus/university tolerates illegal behavior on campus, just because the RA didn't report it doesn't mean that the University wouldn't have taken action against the underage drinkers.
