The staff does not defend its underlying belief--that is, the belief that students should be immune to the national law.

Police officers are responsible for enforcing the law, and while there may be more effective methods of curing the problems resulting from underage drinking, we believe that the staff should not encourage the police to stop enforcing the law without disputing the law itself.
