Correct Answer: Only conclusion (I) follows.
Correct Answer: Drinking begins as a group activity and as students leave these groups, the habit of drinking is also left behind.
Explanation:

Since the passage talks about student groups - 'fraternity and sorority members' - a logical extension would be that it is these groups that prod students to begin drinking and with the breaking of these groups, the habit is also broken. Hence, [C].
