Lead Story
Some Spring Break destinations restrict, outlaw Everclear
Students who plan on partaking in a few drinks this Spring Break should consider doing a little research before leaving.

Iowa, which already has banned the 190-proof beverage, is considering banning 150-proof Everclear after a student at the University of Iowa went to the hospital with a blood alcohol level of .50.
