Whether you’re off to South Beach or South Padre, it’s likely that you or others you are with will have plenty of opportunities to drink alcohol. If you're going to drink during Spring Break, it's very important that you take precautions. Intoxicated students are targeted for both theft and physical assault, so do not underestimate the need to take serious precautions to protect yourself.
Many students binge drink during Spring Break; it has become a big part of the experience for many and it's what gets students into trouble the most.
