Creighton Univ. to allow alcohol sales on campus

By Marie Cushing | April 23, 2008

Nebraska's Creighton University was granted a liquor license for a new on-campus restaurant.

The request was met with protest because state law prohibts alcohol sales at public colleges, but the private Jesuit institution was granted an exception.

Opponents worry this will be seen as encouraging underage drinking, but the school will institute identification scanning, mandatory wristbands and other restrictions.
