The New 4-1-1 on Alcohol Newsletter

The alcohol newsletter is a new feature that was posted on the Cal-State Long Beach Health Center website. By clicking on HRC Programs and then clicking on the Alcohol, Tobacco & Other Drugs link, the 4-1-1 on Alcohol Newsletter appears.

The newsletter informs students about everything they need to know about alcohol. This includes basic facts, alcohol's link to violence and death, California's DUI penalties, the campus's policies regarding alcohol and more. The newsletter also provides tips on alcohol safety and assistance with alcohol problems.

CSULB cooperates with the Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act and the Higher Education Act Section 120A: Drug and Alcohol Abuse Prevention by enforcing standards of conduct that prohibit the unlawful possession, use, or distribution of illegal drugs and alcohol by students and employees on its property or part of any of the school's activities. If this enforcement is broken, CSULB provides a clear statement of disciplinary actions along with a campus drug and alcohol abuse prevention program.

However, CSULB allows alcoholic beverages to be consumed at particular sponsored events with specific approval from the Director of Student Life and Development. The use of alcoholic beverages in any of the residential halls is strictly prohibited.

CSULB is dedicated to to the elimination of the use of illegal drugs and alcohol abuse. The university makes every effort to create a healthy environment.
