Alcohol Awareness
 

Sponsored by the Alcohol Awareness Coordinating Team (AACT)


 
In 2001, the California State University system instituted an alcohol policy which required each campus to develop an on-going alcohol awareness campaign.
AACT was established as a part of the CSU Alcohol Usage Policy. The committee is made up of a cross section of representatives from across campus including: Housing, University Police, Office of Student Life, Health and Psychological Services, Athletics, faculty and students.
 

Mission: ACCT will strive to elevate a level of awareness of the campus community regarding alcohol and drug related issues (health, psychological, social, personal and professional) in order to reduce substance abuse.
Activities conducted by AACT:
Information tables
Speakers
Participation in health fair
Presentations to University 101
Classroom presentations
Assessment
Special programs
In spring 2004 AACT Committee helped produce an original musical "Detox" written by Rex Huesckel and music and lyrics by Jake Fleder.
