On September 28th in Parmelee Residence Hall the Department of Alcohol and other Drug Education, Parmelee resident advisers and Creating Respect through Education and Wellness by students (C.R.E.W.S) peer health educators collaborated on an alcohol education program.
As part of a social norming campaign that is set to take place Fall semester 2006, the event was a mixture of mocktails, DUI education, and root beer pong which taught students about blood alcohol content, the dangers of rapid alcohol consumption, alcohol poisoning awareness and messages regarding how to stay safe while drinking. The event was attended by over 230 students.
As of October 1, 2006 C.R.E.W.S. has reached over 800 CSU students in a total of three alcohol awareness education and prevention events. C.R.E.W.S. so far has displayed a 100 percent participation rate from its active membership.
