College Presidents: Lower Drinking Age to 18

Apparently around 100 college presidents are urging lawmakers to lower the drinking age to 18, under the banner of the Amethyst Initiative. Considering that a lower drinking age would reduce the reasons behind the ludicrousness and binge drinking we see on college campuses (as exemplified by foreign countries with a lower drinking age), and not to mention would increase individual responsibility at an age where persons can already give their lives to their country anyway, I'm for lowering the drinking age as well.
