Specifically, students tend to agree that drinking in moderation, during suitable times and in appropriate settings, is neither the apocalyptic dilemma nor drastic plight that media and society so often make it out to be. This tolerance is perhaps best summarized by AD\/PR major William Henken, who, when asked his take on college drinking, offered: \u201cHow harmful drinking is all depends on the context.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For the entirety of my freshman year I found myself in accordance with this perception: that the damage attributed to drinking was purely contingent to context\u2014 to circumstance. It took me until the beginning of my sophomore year to fully understand that it is not that simple. After all, virtually anything can be harmful \u201cdepending on [the] context.\u201d (There can be dangerous contexts for watching TV, driving, and even breathing!)<\/p>\n<p>It is my most sincere\u00a0desire that every student learn what only a year\u2019s worth of hardheadedness could teach me. <em>Alcohol<\/em> is the context; when you consume it, you create context.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cahcms.smca.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking6.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1269 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cahcms.smca.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking6-300x231.jpg\" alt=\"drinking6\" width=\"300\" height=\"231\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cah.ucf.edu\/imprint\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking6-300x231.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cah.ucf.edu\/imprint\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking6.jpg 500w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1269\" src=\"https:\/\/cahcms.smca.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking6-300x231.jpg\" alt=\"drinking6\" width=\"300\" height=\"231\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cah.ucf.edu\/imprint\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking6-300x231.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cah.ucf.edu\/imprint\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking6.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/p>\n<p>We often\u00a0ignore long-term consequences of drinking because time and probability correlate in our minds. Take liver disease or alcoholism for example. Does anyone actually believe that after one night of excessive drinking they\u2019re doomed to manifest liver disease? That\u00a0a few drunken weekends is enough to turn a person into a full-blown alcoholic utterly beholden to addiction? I think not.<\/p>\n<p>What about the instant ramifications of excessive drinking, though? What about threats that aren&#8217;t so distant or easily displaced? \u00a0Open up to the technological truth; modern day means of broadcasting are expanding at alarming rates. It is not an exaggeration to claim that between the recording devices on any iPhone, Android, or HTC, smartphones can ruin lives. When asked about what students stand to lose by drinking excessively, English major Haley Cannon responded saying\u00a0\u201cPeople videotape everything nowadays, and if a student were to do something embarrassing at a party, such as dancing naked on a table, or even puking on oneself, it&#8217;s bound to resurface.\u201d<br \/>\nCamera action aside, there is still a lot to lose: dignity, friendship, respectability, academic standing, peace of mind, your relationship with a significant other, etc. If you\u2019re one of those people who\u00a0reasons your health isn&#8217;t really at stake because you\u2019re not an alcoholic, then fine. But let\u2019s not pretend that our physical well-being is all that we jeopardize when we binge drink, because it is not\u2014 not even close.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cahcms.smca.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking7.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1275 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cahcms.smca.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking7-300x203.jpeg\" alt=\"drinking7\" width=\"350\" height=\"237\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cah.ucf.edu\/imprint\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking7-300x203.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cah.ucf.edu\/imprint\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking7.jpeg 460w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1275\" src=\"https:\/\/cahcms.smca.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking7-300x203.jpeg\" alt=\"drinking7\" width=\"350\" height=\"237\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cah.ucf.edu\/imprint\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking7-300x203.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cah.ucf.edu\/imprint\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking7.jpeg 460w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Despite these substantial risks, there are people that staunchly defend the merits of being so intoxicated that you black out. These people, usually drunk themselves by the time they begin to \u201cenlighten\u201d you, always make it a point to explain that drinking (and eventually getting drunk) is relaxing, carefree fun. However, I\u2019m obliged to disagree; waking up a many mornings caring very much about what I might have said or done, feeling less than relaxed about my throbbing migraine, and not quite able to see the fun in having lost my ID. Of course, all of this is <em>post<\/em>-party stress\u2014 the madness endured beforehand is a whole different can of worms.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The myth<\/strong>: You and your friends planned to\u00a0attend this party in advance, so there\u2019s no question who\u2019s going to drive. Your outfit\u2019s ready, and so is your plan of attack: get in, get yourself a cup, find a cutie, take a few shots, run the Pong table, snap some crazy photos for social networking, and leave just as the party\u2019s dying down with all of your friends.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The\u00a0reality<\/strong>: You and your friends squabble over who has to drive, only to have\u00a0the same person who\u00a0always ends up designated driver to bitterly end up DD yet again. You spend over half an hour picking an out an outfit because there will be people to impress, spotlight for the taking, and numbers to be collected. You arrive to find that anyone halfway worth your attention\u00a0is already clumsy and slurring, but hey, that\u2019s almost a relief because ten minutes in and your outfit\u2019s already speckled in Hunch Punch. You have to babysit your cup\u2014 which is doubtlessly some gross concoction of Fireball and soda\u2014 if only to assure that it doesn&#8217;t get spiked. You don\u2019t realize it yet, because you\u2019re busy drunk texting, tweeting at, and snapchatting anyone that your bumbling thumbs can, but you and your friends get split up. You\u2019re up every three minutes to use the bathroom because you broke the seal (and by your fifth trip you\u2019ve almost perfected wading around the vomit splattered on the floor and seat). \u00a0Finally, the party ends, and the party only ever ends one of two ways: the cops break it up, or the alcohol runs out.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So you see, contrary to popular belief, it\u2019s a lot of work trying to have fun when you\u2019re out drinking. Everything that is difficult, frustrating, or annoying when you\u2019re sober is drastically intensified by the inability to think critically.\u00a0Now maybe you\u2019ve watched these things happen or have been in the predicament(s) yourself, but you\u2019re not sure how to gracefully remove yourself from these situations. Between all of the normalization and glory that college drinking receives, it can be tough not feeling pressured to engage in it.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I have seen men and women, freshmen and seniors, people-persons and wallflowers alike, all coerced into drinking: \u201cCome on, just one!\u201d \u201cJust drink it.\u201d \u201cOne more, I promise, just do one more.\u201d \u201cYou\u2019re seriously not even gonna drink? Why did you even come with us?\u201d However, the one I am most often and most irritated to hear is \u201cWe just want you to have a good time!&#8221; Usually issued from the lips of people whose friend has declared they either will not, or do not want to drink.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cahcms.smca.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking8.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1274 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cahcms.smca.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking8-300x125.jpg\" alt=\"drinking8\" width=\"350\" height=\"146\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cah.ucf.edu\/imprint\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking8-300x125.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cah.ucf.edu\/imprint\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking8.jpg 570w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1274\" src=\"https:\/\/cahcms.smca.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking8-300x125.jpg\" alt=\"drinking8\" width=\"350\" height=\"146\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cah.ucf.edu\/imprint\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking8-300x125.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cah.ucf.edu\/imprint\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/09\/drinking8.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/p>\n<p>(I\u2019d like to take a moment to disclaim that it is hard to make new friends.

So the next time your \u201cfriends\u201d assure you that they \u201cjust want you to have a good time,\u201d hear that heartfelt dialogue for what it actually is: we don\u2019t look fun if you don\u2019t drink, we don\u2019t look approachable if you don\u2019t drink, and we don\u2019t look like we belong here if you don\u2019t drink.
