J J AIO • THE REVIEW • April 15, 1997 A grant to reduce high--risk drinking at UD: ' ' I

ast fall, the University of Delaware was one of only a few schools nationally to receive funding from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) to reduce high,risk drinking among college students. A considerable amount of media attention has been focused on the project and students have raised many questions. John B. Bishop, who has chaired UD's Student Alcohol Use Committee for the past two years, is the Project Director for the RWJP.grant. He answers some of the • most frequently raised questions about the grant .

because it must be acknowledged that students often drink with the specific intention of WHO DECIDED HOW "BINGE getting drunk. That intention does not necessarily change in relation to the activities 'DRINKING" IS DEFINED AND THAT that are scheduled on the campus. A column on the sports page of The Review (Oct. 22, 1996) pointed out quite accurately that some students prefer to sit outside the football IT IS A PROBLEM? stadium and get drunk instead of going inside to attend an athletic event. We cannot ignore that students are making those choices. According to the Harvard School of Public Health, binge drinking is Over the past two years, the Student Alcohol Use Committee has listened carefully defined as five or more drinks in a row, one or more times during a to students and has received a great deal of information about their thoughts, feelings two-week period for men and four or and behavior in regard to drinking. When given the opportunity to talk about their more drinks in a row during this same participation in binge drinking, some claim that being period for women. Research demonstrates that this is the ON OUR CAMPUS, MOST OF THE "wild and crazy" is a part of the college experience and that alcohol abuse facilitates or is a part of such behavior. level of drinking at which individuals begin to report PHYSICAL AND SEXUAL ASSAULTS, various alcohol-related health and behavior problems that Many other students on the University of Delaware affect them personally as well as affecting others in their ACCIDENTAL INJURIES OR campus make frequent references to feelings of loneliness, environment. discouragement in attempting to make meaningful FATALITIES, MUCH OF THE PROPERTY Some students may fee l that four or five drinks connections with their peers, low self-esteem levels that do should not qualify them as a "binge drinker," since, in DAMAGE AND A WIDE VARIETY OF not permit them to have the courage to go against the reality, many students report drinking far more than this. social and cultural norms, depression, anxiety, frustrations In fact, some have derided this definition of binge drinking OTHER DISRUPTIONS WHICH OCCUR in establish ing romantic and interpersonal intimacies, because their perception is that "everyone I know drinks IN THE LIVES OF STUDENTS ARE boredom resulting from not knowing how to fi ll their free like that." Be that as it may, research data indicate that time with meaningful or fun activities, fear of the future, students who drink in these or greater amounts will differ ALCOHOL .. RELATED. and the list goes on. The point is, students do not tell us from other students in the frequency and severity of their that they ab use alcohol because there is "nothing to do alcohol-related problems. here"; instead, they admit to a very real set of personal rationales, fears and motivations .. . that are understandable, but often unhealthy and alam1ing .

WHY SHOULD WE CARE WHAT WHAT IS THE UNIVERSITY BINGE DRINKERS DO TO GOING TO DO REGARDING THEMSELVES? BINGE DRINKING?

Many students freely admit that they fit the definition of a binge It is not the intent of the University of Delaware to abolish alcohol on drinker, but do not regard it as a real problem in their lives. Most campus or to take a stance that would suggest that the use of alcohol is students who are frequent binge drinkers, however, do admit that they morally incorrect. Instead, our goal is to have the students who choose pay a price for drinking. That is, they may develop hangovers, do to use alcohol do so legally and in a responsible fashion that is something that they regret later, miss classes, or forget where they were or what they did respectful of the community in which we all live. Our goal is to make drunkenness an when under the influence of alcohol. Others report falling behind in academic unacceptable excuse or alibi for violent and disruptive behavior that violates other assignments, arguing with friends, engaging in unplanned sexual activity, etc. So, the students' rights. Our goal is to have those students who have been negatively affected by argument goes, why should the University concern itself with these behav iors since they binge drinkers to feel empowered to speak up without themselves feeling humiliated. reflect choices individuals may make themselves, with the consequences applying only Our goal is to have students recognize how a television commercial that has been to themselves? produced by an alcohol manufacturer glamorizes the use of alcohol in a way that may be The answer is that it is no longer possible to view binge drinking as solely the pure fantasy when compared to the everyday realities of being a college student. problem of the person who is doing the drinking because the consequences often affect other people. The rest of LET'S NOT PRETEND THAT ALCOHOL the community is paying too steep a price for the WHAT ARE THE irresponsible actions of binge drinkers.

The vast majority of students who live on campus have WITH BEHAVIORS AND To change a culture in which heavy experienced one or more problems as a result of binge CONSEQUENCES THAT WE OTHERWISE drinking is not only a component, but drinking that is done by other people. It is common to often a goal, is a daunting task. In fact, hear reports from students of having study or sleep SAY WE OPPOSE. local research data indicates that some interrupted by a binge drinker, being insulted or students begin to binge drink in grade school. Still, it was humiliated by a drunk, being confronted with unwanted sexual advances, or being in a once thought that drunk drivers were just a part of life and that smokers had the right to serious argument or quarrel with a person who has had too much to drink. Most students smoke anywhere and anytime they chose to do so. Today, people are much more likely to admit to having had to take care of drunken students to keep them out of harm's way. In speak out against drunk drivers and smokers because we now know the harm they cause short, alcohol often has a negative impact on people who do not themselves abuse it. others is not an acceptable price to pay for their behavior. To be successful, this project will depend on the willingness of students to voice their disapproval of binge drinking when it adversely affects their lives and their WHY DO STUDENTS community. For those students, it will be important for them to know that other students are standing at their sides, validating their thoughts, feelings, and willingness to DRINK SO MUCH disapprove of the behavior of their peers. The support of the administration, while necessary, is probably not sufficiently powerful to promote a change in the peer norms ANYWAY? that have developed around binge drinking. It is no longer reasonable to deny or ignore that there is a problem here. We are an educational institution whose goal it is to The simplistic response to this question is, "There isn't anything else to discover the truths in the world around us. Let's not pretend that alcohol abuse is an do." Many of the suggestions that have been made to expand the social acceptable or harmless part of our community when it is so clearly associated with and cultural activities on campus have merit. But, should we expect _ behaviors and consequences that we otherwise say we oppose. those alone to reduce binge drinking? That seems an unlikely scenario,
