Now don’t get me wrong, I love a good alcohol induced coma just as much as the next guy, but I do it because I like to, not because I actually believe that it makes me cool.

Unfortunately most of GW disagrees. Drinking makes you cool. Bragging about your “wild” drinking stories makes you even cooler. In facebook’s outstanding “I survived freshman year at college….and it rocked” group, students are given an outlet to talk about their “wildest” stories, and forever ruin their chances of ever getting a real job.

My favorite post reads: “thats gonna be a toss up between when I ran full speed into a wall, passed out in 910, fought the cops and got emerged, or when i was busted twice in one night during finals week, lied to the cops, and got kicked out of thurston. ... ballin”

Well James “Tuf” Tufenkdjian, I couldn’t have put it better myself. Now, on top of GW’s crippling tuition, your parents have the luxury of paying your rent and drug and alcohol fines. Way to be. Ballin.
