iPods might be more popular than beer on campuses these days, but when Fairfield University decided to ban all kegs and beer balls from campus they upset everybody…students and townies alike.
The new policy, spelled out in Fairfield University’s 2006-07 student handbook, states: “No student, regardless of age, is permitted to be in possession of kegs, beer balls, common containers over 64 ounces or equivalent quantities of liquor anywhere on campus.”
The Connecticut Post reports that residents of Fairfield Beach, an off-campus neighborhood where many students live, are now concerned about raucous student parties in the hood.
And Fairfield student Dan Stanczyk, summed up the student side of the problem saying, “We’re not in favor of it. A keg is easier than carrying many 30-packs and cheaper.”
Hard to argue with that!
