Schools Shouldn't Be Allowed "Open-Campuses"
I disagree with the idea of an open-campus because there will most likely be those students who take advantage of the circumstances.

The open road is the university of life. Why shouldn't a campus be the same?

 When a student is at school and is supposed to be learning more academic lessons; "the university of life" should not be taught.

During the school day students do need a break from school, however, an open campus allows students the opportunity to participate in illegal acts such as underaged smoking, sex in the back seat of their cars, drugs, and fighting. There are students that will always find a way but having a closed campus makes it more difficult to participate in and may deter these activities.

There will ALWAYS be students who take advantage of their school's weaknesses - including if it's an open campus. However, school is helping teach them to become adults who will have to learn to make good choices once they're no longer in school. An open campus can be part of that learning process. And if they get caught abusing the open campus then yes there should be ramifications and hopefully they will learn from it.
