Buddy system

A bunch of college students get together to drink. Some of them are over 21, and some are under:

Police arrested three Notre Dame students on felony charges for providing alcohol to minors early Sunday morning, according to South Bend police logs.

One 19-year-old male was also arrested on a misdemeanor charge for the same offense. Of the three arrested on felony charges, one was 21 years old and two were 22.

Police busted the party on the 900 Block of East Corby Street at about 1 a.m. The logs listed a 17-year-old male living in Dillon Hall as the victim of the felony. Four other minors were cited for underage drinking.

Is giving a college buddy a drink as bad as a stranger agreeing to go to the liquor store for teenagers? Should these really be felony charges? Dunno, just asking.
