Alcoholic Beverage Policy

Winthrop University does not sanction the consumption or possession of alcoholic beverages by students; nor does it sanction the violation of federal, state, or local law. Responsibility for good conduct rests with students as adult individuals. It is against South Carolina law for any person under the age of 21 years to purchase or knowingly have in his or her possession any alcoholic beverages. Any person who sells or gives alcoholic beverages to any person under the age of 21 is responsible to the law. Furthermore, any students or student groups sponsoring social events are the hosts responsible for complying with all applicable laws and university regulations.
