Prevention

Students are getting more involved on their campuses across the nation to combat the alcohol and drug misuse culture that currently plagues colleges and universities. Find out how you can get involved with programming on your campus to enhance your college student experience, support the personal and academic successes of your peers, and save lives.

  1. It is crucial to be educated. Learn more about alcohol, prescription medications, marijuana and other drugs. Alcohol and other drug misuse among college students is commonly related to academic failure, sexual assaults, unwanted pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases, fights, assaults, and unintentional injuries.
  2. The non-medical use of prescription drugs negatively impacts academic success. While many students claim that using stimulants as “study aids” helps them perform better, the truth is, students who misuse prescription stimulants typically spend less time studying, skip class more often, and earn lower grades.
  3. Campuses offer many opportunities to get involved to promote healthy behaviors on campus. Learn more about how to get involved once you get to campus.
