Starting July 1st, police in Athens will not take students into custody for underage drinking. They'll receive a citation/$300 fine instead.

That's how it used to be. Much better policy, if you ask me.

Very, very good news.

I'm curious though how this affects suspensions and official team policies. Even though they aren't being arrested (thank goodness, that should be common sense), I wonder if they'll still receive the same punishment? I suppose it is still an "alcohol related offense".

Wasn't that largely the policy, anyway? It seemed like most of the people who ended up in bracelets got them for "Drunk and Disorderly," not being underage.

This is great but I'm a selfish douche and I want everyone else who gets an MIP to get taken to jail just like me
