This article explores the evolving landscape of college drinking policies, particularly the trend towards parental notification for student alcohol offenses. We examine various universities, such as Ohio Northern University and the University of Rhode Island, highlighting instances where parents are informed about their child's first offense. Key legislation like FERPA, as well as individual institutions' approaches, reveal a shift towards increased parental involvement in addressing student drinking issues. This piece aims to inform parents, educators, and students about current practices and their implications for campus life.
