Penalties to fit the "crime"

It's good to see that 60s spirit sparking up on college campuses. Supporters of a campus-wide ballot issue at the University of Colorado staged a rally as voting began for the on-campus referendum. The question before the student body is whether marijuana and alcohol infractions should carry the same penalty. Proponents rightfully point out that currently marijuana carries a much higher penalty while it's alcohol abuse that causes most of the problems. CBS4 reports:
The voting goes on all this week. Results will come on Saturday. Students at Colorado State passed a similar resolution last week.
We await the results with great interest.
