University Birthday card - Warns against the dangers of alcohol

"At Texas A&M, where student Michael Wagener died of alcohol poisoning on his 21st birthday in 1999, students who turn 21 receive a card about safe drinking that is signed by Wagener's parents, the university president, and vice president for student affairs. "


I have seen this card - (that a friend of mine received). Its a real birthday card to wish you for your birthday, along with an insert that contains a message from the parents cautioning people about the dangers of alcohol poisoning and why they are including this message.

Here are some more stories on this:
