GW is committed to equipping students with the knowledge and skills they need to make informed, healthy decisions regarding substance use and to reduce their risk for negative consequences due to use.
AlcoholEdu is an evidence-based training designed to prevent risky drinking and other drug use on campus and help students better reach their academic, professional and personal goals. All incoming first-year, transfer students, and second-year residential students must complete AlcohoEdu.
GW Late Night is a series of evening and weekend events providing space for students to have fun and socialize, explore new interests, and take a break from academics without the temptation or risks involved with drinking alcohol or being in an environment where alcohol is present.
The Alcohol & Other Drug (AOD) process is designed to educate students on the potential consequences of hazardous drinking and substance use, as well as assess students behavior relative to use. In conjunction with Students’ Rights & Responsibilities, the AOD process involves a series of education modules and screening tools, so students are equipped with the information to stay safe and not simply penalized for AOD violations.
