Alcohol was reportedly a factor in the weekend death of a Washington and Lee
student.
University spokesman Brian Shaw says 19- year- old freshman John "Jack"
Bowden apparently had been drinking before he fell out of a second floor
dormitory window at about nine-30 Friday night.
Shaw says no one else was in the room with Bowden before his fall. He was
discovered by students who were passing by the dorm.
Bowden suffered head injuries and was taken to Stonewall Jackson Hospital in
Lexington.
He was airlifted to Roanoke Memorial Hospital, where he later died.
Bowden was from Connecticut.

One study says a third of the federal government's budget is linked to it:
things like Social Security payments, government workers' retirement benefits,
the official government poverty line, plus tax brackets and standard
