The Alcohol Policies and Prevention Programs Committee Report adopted by the Board of Trustees of the California State University calls for an annual alcohol education conference for campus alcohol advisory council members and other interested persons. We are pleased to invite you to attend and participate in the 7th Annual California Higher Education Alcohol & Other Drugs Education Conference - Alcohol and...Other Drugs, Violence, Tobacco and You.

The planning committee of the 2008 California Higher Education Alcohol and Other Drugs Education Conference recognizes the significance of examining behaviors that may jeopardize students' safety from a holistic approach. Alcohol abuse is often accompanied with other dangerous activities, resulting in multiple risks for students. Prevention must include environmental strategies and address the multiple ways alcohol and/or drug abuse can impact the lives of our students. This year's conference entitled, Alcohol and...Other Drugs, Violence, Tobacco, and You, was designed with this comprehensive theory in mind.

This year there will continue to be representatives from the University of California (UC), and private universities participating in our conference planning. We view their contributions as an opportunity to strengthen our collaborative efforts in order to improve our services to all students throughout California.

In addition, an increasing number of students are attending the CSU Alcohol and Other Drugs Education Conference each year. The input and presence of these committed student leaders provide us with a reality check and fresh perspectives to ensure we are on the right track.
