http://kidshealth.org/teen/drug_alcohol/alcohol/alcohol.html This article is very brief, but it provides the reader with an understanding of the relationship between alcohol and teenagers. The article states that over 80% of high school teens have tried alcohol. My question is why ignore the signs of lowering the drinking age? 80% is a staggering percentage of teens breaking the law. They would not need to break the law if the drinking age was lowered to 19. Hopefully if the high schoolers would see that they could legally drink in a couple years rather than four to six years, they would be inclined to wait it out to drink alcohol.

http://www.drugabuse.gov/drugs-abuse/alcohol This article is very brief as well, but it doesn't give near enough information as the article listed above. This website also gives several related resources that are not that much help in supporting my claim. Although there are some informal resources listed that could educate anyone on alcohol abuse in college.

http://www.niaaa.nih.gov/alcohol-health/special-populations-co-occurring-disorders/underage-drinking This website has a great article that gives the reader all they need to know about underage drinking. This is by far the best non-wikipedia article i have found, but there is always room for improvement. The author could have added some graphs illustrating the information that was given. This way the reader could better digest the information given to them.
