Shifting the College Drinking Culture College Drinking: Not a "harmless rite of passage" Environmental Management: Vital to creating change PartySafe@Cal: Reducing Harm associated with drinking and parties around campus |
College Drinking: Not a "harmless rite of passage" Every
facet of American higher education - creating a safe and stimulating
learning environment, maintaining world class academic standards, sustaining
student health and wellness, developing good working relationships with
the surrounding community, and ensuring the institution's fiscal integrity
and longevity - is made more difficult if the surrounding culture accepts
and leaves high risk college drinking
and party practices unchallenged. Berkeley campus and community organizations
are addressing drinking and party problems in a more consistent, complete,
and coordinated way than ever before. Perhaps because of this collaboration,
UC Berkeley has had a meaningful impact on student drinking. |
PartySafe@Cal
is a program of University Health Services in collaboration with other campus
and community organizations.
The mission is to reduce harm associated with
drinking in the campus area.
