Really?
The Green Bay Press-Gazette finally figures out what kills kids in La Crosse.
However, if you take a look at the city of La Crosse and look where the campus is, where the downtown bar scene is, and where the Mississippi River is, a person would have to make an effort to get to the river if they want to fall it.
You can try to blame drinking all you want, but this kid wasn't alone going to the river that night. You just don't stumble to the river.
Nice try P-G, but you'll have to actually leave the newsroom and take a field trip before you make generalizations about alcohol consumption. Per capita, UW-Green Bay students drink more than anyone in the state, yet you don't see us falling into Green Bay.
