Taming of the Brew

Realistic Alternatives to Drinking and Drug Abuse on Campus
WATCH VIDEO

Having grown up with an alcoholic parent, it took me until I entered college to discover Al-Anon , counseling, journaling and the benefits of all three modalities. Through my own bouts with alcohol and drug use in college, I discovered that having a keen sense of humor, help me become more open to change. This was key in helping me survive, strive and succeed in school.

I've spent the past ten years interviewing hundreds of college student and administrators in my travels to campuses around the U.S. and in Canada. I've gathered my information through a series of anonymous questionnaires to students.

Schools have wide varied drinking policies from the very strict dry campuses with "presence policies" to the campuses that allow fraternities and sororities to have keg parties without supervision. My goal in this interactive program is to increase awareness, introduce alternatives to drinking that may not have been considered by students, offer ideas on how to relieve stress and learn how not to feel alienated by your choices.

Topics covered:
  • New methods to curb binge drinking
  • Drinking games
  • Health Risks
  • Social Pressures
  • Dark Humor
Benefits for students:
  1. Gain perspective about drinking to relieve stress
  2. Seek alternatives to binge drinking
  3. Reach out to a fellow student who needs help
  4. Consider Counseling as an alternative to drugs/alcohol
  5. Access a sense of humor during tough times

This Program is ideal for Alcohol Awareness programs, Wellness, Welcome Week, Orientations, Residence Life, Greek Week.and Greek Council programming.
