Not everyone parties/drinks heavily. Many campus alcohol studies will tell you that drinkers are in the minority. Especially heavy drinkers. However, people generally notice the loud, puking drunk person rather than the quiet nerdy types in the library on friday nights. Interestingly, on my campus it was the students from overseas who worked harder than any “native” students who stayed in on Fridays…hmm, and we wonder why jobs are going overseas? Perhaps some people aren’t taken things like education for granted. Just a thought.

Also, more importantly you are no longer a college student when you are looking for employment, and employed people are expected to project a professional appearance, which doesn’t include half-naked drunkeness. It is best to not blur the lines between your public and private life via myspace, because an employer will only see the public persona.

All that being said and tangents aside, I am in my mid-twenties, like alcoholic beverages but never to the point where I am throwing up, and have both myspace and facebook profiles which I keep private. And my last boss would tell us names of people to google and check on myspace before an interview even happened.
