- Resetting unrealistic expectations about the effects of alcohol
- Linking choices about drinking to academic and personal success
- Helping students practice safer decision-making
- Engaging students to create a healthier campus community

AlcoholEdu delivers a personalized experience to all types of students based on their drinking choices and readiness to change. For example, frequent high-risk drinkers receive a Brief Motivational Intervention
“Personal Plan” tool allows students to set personal goals based on their drinking choices and provides highly specific strategies and suggestions to help them achieve these goals.
Pre- and post-surveys yield a robust database on first-year students’ alcohol use, including where, when, why, and how students drink. This data can then be compared to the national aggregate and customized peer group results.
