Behind the Arch: The Truth about Drinking :: Alcoholism Drinking Essays

rear end the Arch The Truth about Drinking at BVUAfter culture the make, Behind the Arch The Truth about Drinking at BVU by Chris Allen, Alisa Dixson, Jennifer Durham, Shelley Katzer, Max Kenkel, Teri Kramer, Toby Malavong, and Courtney Weller, I realized that drinking on our BVU campus is a problem. I think that this is a problem on almost exclusively college campuses though. This identical group of students could go to almost any campus in the country and find the same facts I believe. I did however, have some problems with the facts in the allegory. Some of the facts, to me, seemed almost impossible to be factual. Also, I think that the piano teacher opinions were not needed in the book as such(prenominal) as they were. The fact that all these professors were once a kid cleverness have been left out in some of these stories. So, at times, when I was reading this book I lost interest. I think that more(prenominal)(prenominal) research and surveying should have t aken place before this book was used for classroom purposes. Instead of taking opinions from only non-drinking students and professors that all seemed to interpret that they have never drank before, the opinions should have been more varied and this book whitethorn have been worth taking a look at.Reading is enjoyed by almost everyone when the subject is interesting or factual. When a person is force to read something, and they start to find patterns of in reachation that seem to not be true, they tend to lose interest. Reading this book lost me almost form the start. Why did all the professors seem to speak of the exact same facts? They tell the same facts in opinion, but differing stories would leak a little more true information than others. All of the students stories in the book seemed to have the same problem as well. To start the book, the first story started out with a young man and his roommate who chose to stay in their dorm on a Friday night and do their calculu s homework. This isnt a noisome story, but if this book is aimed for us to understand how much drinking was sack on around our campus, then why didnt they start the story with someone who is drinking. How can a reader get the full integrity about drinking, if they are interviewing kids that do not even participate in partying or drinking, not even socially?
