The inevitability of underage drinking: How UW-Madison fails to adapt

With the bar scene at UW-Madison’s campus starting to become more strict, students will be forced into drinking at unsafe house parties instead.
The University of Wisconsin-Madison’s response to the recent antisemitism on campus was wrong. Instead of completely denouncing the incidents, the university favored hate speech that was publicized as a time for debate rather than condemnation.
If American teenagers are already drinking, why does our country legally restrict exposure to alcohol until 21 years old, limiting their education on drinking as a whole?
If the overwhelming majority of our campus — as vaccinated people — are protected from death and hospitalization, it makes zero logical sense to care about an increase in cases.
Undeniably, the decision to remain unvaccinated is self-inflicted. The logic in forcing the vaccinated folk to maintain strict safety protocols on campus that are just to keep the unvaccinated healthy is flawed and unfair.
If the solution to COVID-19 was fewer positive cases and more vaccinations, the university did an inadequate job at giving their students the liberty they work so very hard to deserve.
If the Democratic legislators would not have focused on pushing Biden’s economic agenda this way, the American people could have begun to receive the economic relief they desperately need.
