Kutztown University's Choices is a publication for students and employees on alcohol and other drugs.
KU Choices invites students and the campus community to educate themselves about the dangers of alcohol and how to make safe choices.
The President's Roundtable on Alcohol & Other Drugs is a campus and community coalition that was established in 1998. Efforts are aimed toward developing strategies that include environmental approaches (such as more vigorous enforcement of zero tolerance laws, other drinking and driving laws, and strategies to reduce the availability of alcohol) as well as initiatives that target individual drinkers (implementation of routine alcohol screening, counseling and treatment).
Events & Accomplishments
Kutztown University received state funding for the Pennsylvania Strategic Prevention
Framework State Incentive Grant for the 2008-2012 fiscal years. The grant concluded and a final report was made available July 2012.
During the 2012-2013 academic year, the President's Roundtable took the findings of the report and focused on building the coalition capacity. The Steering Committee met throughout the academic year that included stakeholders from campus offices, local police force, local government agents, local school district, and local businesses. The coalition supports alcohol screenings, Training for Intervention ProcedureS (TipS® ) for the
University, the Great American Smokeout, and interactive educational displays at events and workshops.
At the conclusion of the 2012-2013 academic year, the President's Roundtable on Alcohol &
Other Drugs made a decision to look for outside funding opportunities that would provide an opportunity to support alcohol and other drugs prevention efforts.
The college experience is unique and different for everyone. Finding balance through healthy lifestyle choices can assist students in meeting their goals with success.
Brief Alcohol Screening and Intervention for College Students (BASICS) is now available to students as a self-referral for students contemplating change.

The Parents Guide to Alcohol and Other Drugs
The Parents Guide to Alcohol and Other Drugs is aimed at educating parents about health risk and high-risk student behavior. Risky behavior by college students is nothing new, but across the country the intensity and widespread prevalence of high risk behaviors has dramatically increased in recent years. New students are particularly susceptible to a phenomenon known as the "College Effect" where these high risk behaviors spike during their transition to college. As partners, Kutztown University and parents can help reduce the negative consequences associated with substance use and abuse through education and healthy communication.

Dear University Community,
It is an ongoing priority at KU to provide our campus community with increased awareness regarding alcohol and other drugs.
Our educational process begins as soon as we engage our new students. We conduct a social norm campaign aimed at freshman and first year residents. We also emphasize helping students understand that alcohol and other drugs are not necessary, and that they hamper academic and/or personal success.
The Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board recently awarded KU with a grant to support our educational efforts. This will allow us to implement "Communities Mobilizing for a Chance", a program designed to reduce underage access and underage choice of alcohol consumption in the surrounding community. We will also expand our successful peer-topeer outreach program to off campus residents, and provide continued support for the
AlcoholEdu program (see alcoholedu.com).
As always, I want to urge everyone to assist our efforts to help reduce high risk behaviors. It truly takes focus from all of us to establish a safe and healthy campus and surrounding community. Thank you for your cooperation, concern and commitment.
Sincerely,
F. Javier Cevallos
President

Tobacco and alcohol use are very common in our society and are associated with significant morbidity and mortality.
Alcohol consumption has immediate effects that can increase risk for motor vehicle accidents, poor academic or work performance, violence, unwanted pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases. Acute alcohol intoxication can result in seizures, coma, and death. Chronic abuse of alcohol can result in attention disorders, memory lapse, and blackouts. Persons aged 12 to 20 years drink almost 20% of all alcohol consumed in the
United States. Over 90% of this alcohol is consumed in the form of binge drinking.
Some consequences of underage drinking include: higher risk for suicide and homicide; unintentional injuries; abuse of other drugs; changes in brain development that may have life-long effects; and disruption of normal growth and sexual development.
Although smoking rates have declined over the last several years, more than 1 in 5
Americans smoke. Each year, an estimated 438,000 Americans die as a result of smoking or exposure to secondhand smoke. The estimated costs of smoking-related medical expenses and loss of productivity exceed $167 billion annually (CDC Data Highlights 2006).
Nicotine is a poison; tars are chemicals that stay in the lungs; and carbon monoxide is a poison found in tobacco smoke. Nicotine is more addictive than cocaine or heroin!
Another concern is the growing prescription drug use and abuse. Most people who take prescription medications take them responsibly; however, the non-medical use or abuse of prescription drugs remains a serious public health concern. Certain prescription drugs
(central nervous system depressants and stimulants) when abused can alter the brain's activity and lead to dependency and possibly addiction.
Drug addiction is a brain disease which affects human behavior. Once addicted, an individual's ability to make voluntary decisions is altered and leads to compulsive drug craving, seeking and use. The impact of addiction can be far reaching. Cardiovascular disease, stroke, cancer, HIV/AIDS, hepatitis, and lung disease can all be affected by drug abuse. Prescription drug misuse involves a myriad of factors, including the power of addiction, misperceptions about drug abuse, and the difficulty in discussing the topic with healthcare providers.
A person convicted of an offense, under the Pennsylvania Controlled Substance, Drug,
Device and Cosmetic Act, can face up to a 15 year prison term and/or $250,000 in fines.
In addition to monetary fines and/or prison time, a person may also have imposed upon him/herself forfeiture of assets and property, suspension or revocation of driving privileges, a "criminal record," and could face civil liabilities in addition to the criminal penalties.

Offenses pertaining to liquor and/or controlled substance violation under Title 18 and Title
75 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statures may result in strict sanctions against convicted offenders.
Under certain provisions, a convicted offender could be sanctioned up to a $15,000 fine and/or 7 years in prison. In addition, driving privileges could be suspended or revoked and civil action could be brought against the offender. Parents of minors (defined to be under the age of 21) would be notified by law enforcement agencies in accordance with provisions as mandated by law.

A snapshot of Annual High-Risk College Drinking Consequences
High-risk college student drinking includes the following:
 Underage drinking
 Drinking and driving or other activities where the use of alcohol is dangerous
 Drinking when health conditions or medications make use dangerous
Binge drinking; that is, 5 drinks in a row per occasion for males and 4 for females*
*Moderate drinking by persons of legal age is defined as no more than 2 standard drinks per day for men and 1 per day for women.
The consequences of excessive and underage drinking affect virtually all college campuses, college communities and college students, whether they choose to drink or not.
•Death: 1,825 college students between the ages of 18 and 24 die from alcohol-related unintentional injuries, including motor vehicle crashes (Hingson et al., 2009).
•Injury:
599,000 students between the ages of 18 and 24 are unintentionally injured under the influence of alcohol (Hingson et al., 2009).
•Assault: 696,000 students between the ages of 18 and 24 are assaulted by another student who has been drinking (Hingson et al., 2009).
• Sexual Abuse: 97,000 students between the ages of 18 and 24 are victims of alcoholrelated sexual assault or date rape (Hingson et al., 2009).
•Unsafe Sex: 400,000 students between the ages of 18 and 24 had unprotected sex and more than 100,000 students between the ages of 18 and 24 report having been too intoxicated to know if they consented to having sex (Hingson et al., 2002).
•Academic Problems:
About 25 percent of college students report academic consequences of their drinking including missing class, falling behind, doing poorly on exams or papers, and receiving lower grades overall (Engs et al., 1996; Presley et al.,

1996a, 1996b; Wechsler et al., 2002).
•Health Problems/Suicide Attempts : More than 150,000 students develop an alcoholrelated health problem (Hingson et al., 2002), and between 1.2 and 1.5 percent of students indicate that they tried to commit suicide within the past year due to drinking or drug use
(Presley et al., 1998).
•Drunk Driving: 3,360,000 students between the ages of 18 and 24 drive under the influence of alcohol (Hingson et al., 2009).
•Vandalism: About 11 percent of college student drinkers report that they have damaged property while under the influence of alcohol (Wechsler et al., 2002).
•Property Damage: More than 25 percent of administrators from schools with relatively low drinking levels and over 50 percent from schools with high drinking levels say their campuses have a "moderate" or "major" problem with alcohol-related property damage
(Wechsler et al., 1995).
•Police Involvement
: About 5 percent of 4-year college students are involved with the police or campus security as a result of their drinking (Wechsler et al., 2002), and 110,000 students between the ages of 18 and 24 are arrested for an alcohol-related violation such as public drunkenness or driving under the influence (Hingson et al., 2002).
•Alcohol Abuse and Dependence : 31 percent of college students met criteria for a diagnosis of alcohol abuse and 6 percent for a diagnosis of alcohol dependence in the past
12 months, according to questionnaire-based self-reports about their drinking (Knight et al.,
2002).

Kutztown University Alcohol Policy
Purpose: To prohibit the use and/or sale of alcoholic beverages, except under listed circumstances, at Kutztown University.
The sale and use of alcohol beverages is prohibited on University campus, at any University sponsored event or in any University-owned, University-leased, Student Government
Association SGA-owned or SGA-leased vehicle being used to transport students to officially approved activities or events, except as described in the special events as identified in the policy.

Good Samaritan Policy for Alcohol & Other Drug (AOD) Medical Emergencies

Kutztown University has established a policy to encourage students to come forward during times of an AOD medical emergency and someone is in need. The policy is designed encourage students during these times without fear of "getting in trouble" with the school.
Moreover, Pennsylvania has also recently passed a Good Samaritan Law for underage drinking for similar circumstances. Why all the fuss about "Good Samaritan" policies and laws? The bottom line, the health and well-being of a person, is an overwhelming priority and nothing should deter a person from helping someone in need during a medical emergency.

Student Conduct Sanctions for Alcohol Violations http://www2.kutztown.edu/studentconduct

A student found to be in-violation of the Student Code of Conduct will be sanctioned in accordance with the procedures and standards outlined in the Document on Student Rights and Welfare . Specifically, a first offense violation of the alcohol policy will most likely result in a student receiving a sanction of disciplinary probation for up to one semester. In addition, the student may be required to complete an alcohol education program. A second offense that occurs while on disciplinary probation may result in the student being suspended from the university for a minimum of one semester. A program of progressive discipline is employed for additional offenses that occur if a student is not on disciplinary probations including but not limited to extended disciplinary probation, loss of university housing and/or participation in an alcohol and other drug evaluation.
The Kutztown University Student Code of Conduct applies to conduct that occurs on university premises, at university sponsored activities, and to off campus conduct that represents a substantial university interest which adversely affects the university community and the pursuit of its objectives.
Assessment & Counseling Services for Alcohol & Other Drugs
Department of Counseling & Psychological Services is available to all currently enrolled full time students. A certified Alcohol & Other Drug Specialist provides assessment, counseling and referral services for students who have issues or concerns related to alcohol and/or other drug use.

Tips for being a responsible host



 NEVER serve someone under 21.
 Always serve foods like cheese, breads, and starchy foods and non-alcoholic beverages.
Do not force drinks onto guests or rush to refill an empty glass.
When serving alcoholic punch, use a non-carbonated base, such as fruit juice.
Set a time for the party to end and stop serving drinks two hours before. Continue serving food and non-alcoholic drinks.
 Set an example by exercising responsibility.
 Get help when the situation is beyond your control or when someone needs medical attention.
 Discourage excessive drinking or serving alcohol to which you suspect may already be intoxicated.
 NEVER encourage games or contests that encourage rapid and excessive consumption of alcohol (i.e. drinking games).
