Claim: Alcohol can ruin a university student's life
Alcohol and drinking has now become the biggest problem at universities, and not the fees. Dr. Chris Record, a leading specialist, lecturer, and consultant at Newcastle Freeman Hospital said, "The commonest of death in young people, students for instance, is alcohol." Drinking has become a major problem in Universities across the world. It has become another temptation, another way for students to forget about their stress and university life for a moment and just have fun. Universities were created to enhance the knowledge of students and prepare them for their future years and help them specialize in the course they chosen. They weren't created to let students have fun drinking all night long with other people, and have no energy the next day to learn and study. Universities should definitely ban or at least limit drinking alcohol. This is a very large problem across the world and something must be done to stop it before it goes too crazy. It really does affect university students and their future. Just because of alcohol, a person's life is destroyed or turned to the other way. When students realize that they have an addiction to alcohol, most of them are already too late. It sounds like boarding schools for middle and high school students, but I also suggest that universities shouldn't allow their students be off campus after 11pm, and if they come back later than 11pm, there will be consequences. Every time they leave campus they need to sign in, and sign out when they come back. This way, it will limit the amount of alcohol students drink. Drinking is also not just a problem for university students, but also for teenagers and adults as well. It is a addiction to many people and destroys many lives.
