BINGE DRINKING ON CAMPUS:

IS THIS WHERE YOU WANT TO END UP AT THE END OF THE NIGHT?

The above picture is a real life scenario which millions of college students go through each year.

Do you want this to be you? No one enjoys hovering over a toilet seat (especially a college dorm toilet) or ending

up in the hosital to get a tube stuck down your throat, in order to have your stomach pumped, due to alcohol abuse.

1. Alcohol abuse, or "binge drinking," will result in nothing but real-life negative consequences in your life, such as the following: serious injuries from auto injuires, arrest for DUI/OUI, loss of license, loss of employment, loss of respect, loss of close relationships with friends and family members, loss of independence/freedom, expensive fees associated lawyer's fees, cout fees,

mandatory alcohol abuse classes, public transportation fees, etc.

2. It is very likely that you will face negative results due to binge drinking on campus if you don't adapt the following behaviors: assigning a designated driver and not drinking and driving, controlling your drinking habits by only drinking to the limit that your body will allow, drinking to a reasonable limit so you wont lose relationships with significant others (see ad below)

"LIPS THAT TOUCH LIQUOR SHALL NOT TOUCH OURS"

If you want to keep that special woman in your life, then you should stay away from alcohol...because it harms not only yourself, but all of those around you.

3. If you dont't binge drink, it is very likely that you will not experience any of the above mentioned results. Instead you will live a furfilling life full of positive consequences.

4. There are several steps you can follow to avoid this behavior and they are the following:

-Joining some sort club/group on campus which will help keep away from the pressure to binge drink;

-Don't play drinking games (beer pong, flip cups, card games, etc); and

-Set a limit for how many drinks you are going to have.
