As at many universities, heavy drinking characterizes the social life of some undergraduate students at the University. Responding to the prevalence of alcohol and a recent tradition observed by a portion of the student body called the Fourth-Year Fifth (where some fourth-year students strive to drink a fifth (750 ml) of alcohol during the day of the last home football game),[39] President Casteen announced a $2.5 million donation from Anheuser-Busch to fund a new UVA-based Social Norms Institute in September 2006.[40] A spokesman said: "the goal is to get students to emulate the positive behavior of the vast majority of students."
