......is the correct answer! Why didn't the Lecturer just wake the kid up gently, escort him off the premises and tell him not to return until he gets a good night's kip? Then soon after contact the parents and tell them he's not welcome until they help him to sort himself out. The world has turned many revolutions since we were at school.
