Only until you have taken the punch.
Initial Text
Just when you thought Metroplex University might run out of terrifying colors to make punch, they trot out this grey sludge. Well, it seems liquid enough, just grey and opaque.
Anyway, aside from some distractible college students, you've got a clear shot at the punch.

You found: stone punch
Mingle
You strike up conversation with a costumed man next to the punch bowl. He's wearing a toga and, perhaps unsurprisingly, is quite soused.
"That's the secret," he confides in you almost immediately, "you've got to start drinking before the party. It's like a warm up. And it's not like I could sneak a keg in under my toga, eh?"
"Anyway, I hope the chaps who snuck into the Dorms are alright. I mean, people snuck in last year and you see where that got us?"
He cocks his head to the side as though listening for an explosion and loses track of the thread of the conversation.
You've earned 4 XP in Will
