    RUNNER BEAT ISSUE—134 A campus safety publication for the UTSA NOVEMBER 2017 1 Safety Tips Holiday security before you leave campus • If you leave campus during school holidays store your bicycle in a secure loca- tion with a U-lock. • If you leave your car on campus, park it in a well-lit area, and remove all valuables from it. • Place valuables that you cannot take with you out of sight in your room/ apartment/home and unplug all appliances before you leave. • If you stay on campus during holidays be alert to any suspicious persons around the residence halls, bike racks, or parking lots. • Call UTSA Police Department 210-458-4242 to report any unusual activity. If you live off campus and are leaving for vacation • Lock doors and windows securely. • Make your house/apartment look occupied; have a friend or neighbor pick up your mail, set televisions and lights on timers, leave your blinds, shades, and curtains in their normal positions. • Leave your vacation phone number, address, and itinerary with a trusted friend so you can be reached in case of an emergency. Party safety • Never leave your drink unattended. • Never accept a drink from anyone but the server at the bar. • Attend parties with friends and look out for one another. No friend left behind mindset. • If you think your drink has been tampered with, let someone know and go directly to the hospital. • Control your amount of drinking. • Never drink and drive; always have a Designated Driver or use Uber, Lyft, or taxi. 2 The Thanksgiving holiday is a time when university students and families are home to celebrate, but it is also the start of the holiday drinking season.

  • 2019 Thanksgiving Buzzed Driving Is Drunk Driving FACT SHEET
    2019 Thanksgiving Buzzed Driving Is Drunk Driving FACT SHEET & TALKING POINTS This Thanksgiving, the U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is teaming up with [State/Local Organization] to keep you safe on the streets. A popular trend, Thanksgiving Eve, or “Blackout Wednesday,” highlights — and even encourages — the heavy consumption of alcohol throughout the long holiday weekend. It’s important to remember that drunk driving is dangerous and illegal in all 50 states, Puerto Rico, and Washington, DC. This year, Thanksgiving Eve falls on Wednesday, Nov. 27, so we’re working hard to get the message out that Buzzed Driving Is Drunk Driving. Read the stats below and help us spread this lifesaving message. This Thanksgiving holiday, NHTSA and its partners are conducting a social media blitz featuring the hashtag #BoycottBlackoutWednesday to help deliver lifesaving messages about the dangers of drunk driving into the public conversation and encourage positive actions that can help reduce impaired driving on the roadways. Drunk-driving-related crashes spike during the Thanksgiving holiday season. According to NHTSA, from 2013 to 2017, more than 800 people died in alcohol-impaired-driving crashes during the Thanksgiving holiday period (6 p.m. Wednesday to 5:59 a.m. Monday), making it one of the deadliest holidays on our roadways. Even one drink can be one too many. In 2017, more than one out of every three traffic fatalities during the Thanksgiving holiday period involved an alcohol-impaired driver. The Cost of Impaired Driving On average, a DUI can set you back $10,000 in attorney’s fees, fines, court costs, lost time at work, higher insurance rates, car towing, and more.

  • Blackout Wednesday' Sets the Table for Underage Drinking
    'Blackout Wednesday' Sets The Table For Underage Drinking When asked the most popular day for underage drinking, most would guess graduation, spring break, homecoming or prom. However, studies show the day of the year underage drinking is most common is the night before Thanksgiving. The popularity of underage drinking on this day is influenced by many factors including: Access: Older siblings and college- age friends are home for the holidays. Availability: Refrigerators are stocked with alcohol for family parties, making alcohol available when adults are preoccupied. Time: School is out and teens have plenty of down time to hang out and engage in risky behavior. This Thanksgiving, you can offer to host non-alcohol and drug-free gatherings for kids, monitor or lock up alcohol in the home, or call ahead when your teen is going to a party and ask who will be supervising and if alcohol will be served. To stay in communication with other Fountain Hills parent residents, your child might be visiting, you can go to fhcoalition.org to learn more about our Safe Homes Network and take the pledge or if you are already a member and want to search the database you can enter the password prevention. If you know of an underage drinking party in Fountain Hills, please use P3 to report it. Don’t forget to talk about these important subjects. Click here for tips to talk with your teen about vaping, alcohol, prescription drugs or marijuana. Red Ribbon Day Takes Place At Middle School! Red Ribbon Week was another successful event with over 500 students and community members in attendance! Many activities included students sharing their voices on how to maintain healthy lifestyles, participating in Vaping information, and more! Thank you to everyone who attended, and to the Fountain Hills School District for such commitment to giving our kids a healthy and safe environment! Rx Drug Take Back Day Success! On Saturday, October 26th residents had the opportunity to rid their homes of potentially dangerous expired, unused and unwanted prescription drugs.
