Celebrate Smart
Coming back to campus is definitely something to celebrate! If you choose to use substances, be safe, smart, and responsible while doing so. Some signs of alcohol poisoning include an individual being unresponsive, vomiting, displaying slow breathing patterns, and showing mental confusion. You should always call 911 if you identify signs of alcohol poisoning. Medical Amnesty protects students seeking medical attention in substance use emergencies. Remember to be that friend, and be that Laker.
