Administration sends mixed messages on alcohol

I have just read with great interest President Brand and Chancellor Brehm's letter, as it was posted on the Web site of IU's Office Of Communications and Marketing, to the Princeton Review regarding its selection of IU as the number one party school in the country. You make strong arguments in showing why IU should not have been chosen for this dubious honor. You make a point of emphasizing the administration's crackdown on binge drinking and alcohol abuse by IU students. \nThis week IU unveiled its new colors and football uniforms at a reception at Champions Sports Bar in Indianapolis. In view of the public position that the University administration has taken against alcohol abuse, I find this to be quite hypocritical. Why could the unveiling not have taken place in Bloomington on the "dry" campus? This administration is once again sending mixed messages to the students, alumni and fans. "Do as I say, not as I do"
