A recent Harvard School of Public Health College Alcohol Study of 17,000 college students on 140 campuses revealed that student perceptions of permissive drinking environments encourage students to drink more heavily. Moreover, these norms appear greatest for students whose own attitudes about drinking are already permissive. Two units of college credit are available to graduate and undergraduate students who attend all conference sessions and complete all assignments and final examinations or turn in final projects. Community professionals and others also are welcome. Certificates are available that serve as proof of attendance for application toward professional development hours or for re-certification purposes.
Early registration is encouraged.
