We’re aiming to raise $30,000 by December 31, so we can continue covering what matters most to you. If New Times matters to you, please take action and contribute today, so when news happens, our reporters can be there. The university uploaded a video of the annual tradition of freshmen painting the “A” on “A” Mountain white, and sure enough, the spot where the freshmen pick up the paint gives them the warning to not drink it.

It looks like the sign may not have gotten through to everyone, though: Send feedback and tips to the author. Follow Matthew Hendley on Twitter at @MatthewHendley.
