A prestigious university near me has a serious alcohol abuse problem, like many universities in the developed world. I suggested to a former administrator that they should only select students who do not drink. Students who understand the wisdom - the history of alcohol is the history ruin. This would ensure the university is graduating the right kind of "leaders" and this in turn would benefit society.
The former administrator said no, the university would never do that. They need x number of students that can pay and graduate to meet the budget. They had no other idea to reduce drinking. It's a major problem but I believe my idea is a good one. Does anyone else agree? Any other ideas?
