Freshers’ Week mayhem sees teens collapsing in the street as unis give boozed up students bracelets to remind them where they live
IT was just another manic Monday for teens celebrating Freshers Week last night - as unis gave students bracelets to remind them where they live.
Booze-fuelled revellers were snapped puking and collapsing in the street at Portsmouth University as they explored the city's bars and clubs ahead of the starting the new term.
“There’s this assumption [at university] that if you get drunk, that’s an irredeemable problem and you’re going to be damaged for life. It’s a normal part of growing up.
"They should really just chill out and leave students to get on with stuff.”
Last night in Portsmouth excited teenagers were dressed to kill and ready to dance the night away.
Hours later, their wild partying had got the better of them, as they were seen slumped on the pavement covered in sick.
Some were even spotted trying to salvage a takeaway meal after clumsily dropping their cheesy chips on the ground.
Others were helped by paramedics on hand to treat drunken teens who had over-indulged as they got into the spirit of university life.
They were taken back to their student pads in the back of an ambulance or sent home with a bottle of water.
Some loved-up teens put on an amorous display as they got to know their peers in the early hours of the morning.
Freshers' Week has become a rite of passage for new students, providing an opportunity to make friends, find your way around and let your hair down before lectures start.
It is held for at least a week, although some universities stretch it to two, before lectures and deadlines begin.
The dates of freshers' weeks vary but it's usually at the end of September with many university freshers' weeks commencing September 18.
New students in Manchester and Birmingham kick-started Freshers' Week with a bang on Sunday night.
