Do any of us really think those cops that made the arrest didn't drink as college underclassmen? Let's be real. The vast majority of college-aged "kids" drink and have some sort of social life. Not only that, but why make a big deal about what people do in their spare time? This party was not in the middle of summer camp, regular season, or even bowl game prep. So why scrutinize college kids for having a good time, especially when no one was hurt, no brawls broke out, and nothing Notre Dame football related was impeded due to this transgression. Sometimes athletes are held to a double standard saying they should not act like any other kid having the college experience. I would say that during the season or camp they should definitely not forget the reason why they are getting a scholarship and focus only on school (unless they are U$C athletes, in which case school is not part of the equation) and contributing their talents in the best way to the football team. But this is July, it was a house party, and they simply broke a law. Let the police deal with it, and move on. This happens all the time, and if no one gets hurt there is no reason to make a big deal out of it.
