University Police believe that the abuse of alcohol and other drugs is unhealthy for students, faculty, staff and visitors. Alcohol abuse is a major public health issue in the academic community and society in general. Alcohol abuse impairs sensory motor skills, judgment and reduces internal inhibition controls. Intoxicated persons often engage in high risk behaviors which can lead to injury, sexual assault, sexually transmitted diseases and death due to overdose, violence and impaired mobility. Alcohol abuse is often a contributing factor for poor school and work performance, as well as contributing to health-related problems.
The University Police encourage others to:
- Make informed choices about whether or not to drink
- Recognize the warning signs of alcohol poisoning
- Know when to call for emergency services when warning signs are present
- Recognize that intoxication can be a significant factor in causing injury to oneself and others, sexual violence, and other criminal behaviors
