As a matter of fact, a case study in the Journal of Cases in Educational Leadership called “Homecoming at Atwater University” outlined an additional reason as to why allowing alcohol consumption at campus events can be consequential. The study talks about students being “extremely intoxicated and belligerent toward alumni” at a homecoming parade…

If you want to achieve your goals for a life after high school, you would have to go over and beyond if you want to get there. This is part of the message that Marlon Wayans has spoken, “Success is not a destination, but the road that you 're on. Being successful means…
