I don't think so...
I don't think lowering the drinking age would be the answer. Many
of these kids are coming from home and are drinking binge drinking
because they are away from home and "free". Lowering the drinking
age would only make them have to escape their parents to hit the
bars to drink but they still have to go home (more or less). At
school, they don't have to go home (to parents) so they can just
pound the drinks.
When I was college, some 500 miles from home, every kid who wanted to drink knew that you didn't need bars for drinking. The local Fraternity on weekends was a great stop for that and a nice party too. Binge drinking in college isn't going to stop by lowering the drinking age.

In response to assignment: Should U.S. lower drinking age?
