This kind of policy has kept any number of student organizations at Michigan
State from organizing any number of non-drinking activities for themselves
because they can't afford the university-mandated and overtime-paid police
detail... and yet the administration is constantly disciplining the students
for their drinking, of course.
This all came out in my sociology capstone course immediately following the
second of the student "riots" after a loss to Duke in the NCAA tournament in
'99.
