Mandatory Alcohol Education – AlcoholEDU

As part of the University’s comprehensive alcohol campaign ALL freshmen are expected to complete AlcoholEdu, an online course designed to educate students about alcohol and its effects.  AlcoholEdu is an interactive, online program designed to inform students about how alcohol affects the body, mind, perceptions, and behaviors. The research-based course provides students with accurate information in a non-judgmental tone and provides personalized feedback that encourages students to consider their own drinking decisions and those of their peers.
