The "wine tasting" class is actually "Horticulture and Enology". European techniques, such as education and taught appreciation of the relevance to wine and its culture, have proved substantially more beneficial than the United States' regulation and prohibition. Prof. Keegan stresses temperance and opposes gluttonous consumption in his class lectures. Binging habits negate and rebel against the culture of enology, another important lesson taught in this course.

Dave Sauter is making recommendations from an alcohol task force conducted in 2006? As a parent of a Miami student, I have greater concerns that the administration is out of touch on real life issues and solutions. Mr. Sauter is quoted as "a work week is five days a week, students should understand that is what is expected of them in the real world." Unless he was misquoted, he needs to get into the real world. A majority of the population works weekends as well, which may include flexible hours or certainly many more hours exceeding the 8-5 schedule that he states in the article. Mr. Sauter and the alcohol task force, if you truly have concerns to help curb drinking at Miami, my 1st recommendation is to cancel the wine tasting course....unless your focus is seeking students & parents to pay inflated university pricing from the academia world who wants to teach students how to drink in the real world.
