Super-caffeinated alcohol drinks such as Four Loko received unwanted attention in recent months when several college students across the country landed in the hospital after drinking the malt beverage. In Philadelphia, Temple sent letters warning students about the flavored drinks. Associate Vice President of Student Affairs Stephanie Ives says Temple has a comprehensive program to fight high-risk drinking but the caffeine drinks are so new they warranted a special effort: "Because the product combines alcohol with caffeine, it overrides the body's ability to understand when it's had too much. So we were trying to caution students, and alert them against using these products."
