Did you know …
-  The average student spends about $900 on alcohol each year – that’s in comparison to an average $450 spent on books!
-  One night of heavy drinking can impair your ability to think abstractly for up to 30 days, limiting your ability to relate textbook reading to what your professor says, or to think through a football play.
-  Approximately 1,700 students between the ages of 18 and 24 die each year from alcohol-related unintentional injuries, including motor vehicle crashes.
