Middlebury College in Vermont is banning on-campus sales of energy drinks, claiming they are linked to “problematic behavior” such as “high-risk sexual activity” and abuse of “intoxicating” substances, reports NBC News. The ban, which will take effect on March 7, will apply to popular beverages such as Red Bull and 5-hour ENERGY, according to The Middlebury Campus.
