Have fun and be safe; It is possible By Margaret Hester * WCnewsmagazine Whether you are going out to a party or just hanging out with friends, drinking safely is one of the most important things to keep in mind while enjoying your college experience. The largest thing that people can do is to look out for one another. Always have at least one sober person around to drive everyone home safely, as well as keep an eye out for you, your friends and others. Its not a good idea to go to parties or bars that are unfamiliar to you or to even take a drink from an unfamiliar person. Since the majority of rapes and sexual assault victims know their assailant, the best way to be safe is watch your drink being poured from the actual container. This will assure that the drink you are enjoying is harmless. Another important thing everyone can do for one another, which is often overlooked, is to watch out for others, even people you may not know. If you've seen that someone has had enough, tell them so. If you see someone who seems to be in an uncomfortable situation, check on them and make sure everything is okay. If someone steps in to help, thats the best way in which to prevent incidents. Also, be smart when is comes to drinking. Dont mix alcohol with pain killers or any other type of drug. Its always hard to tell how different bodies may react to this kind of thing. Another thing to keep in mind is to know your Not just a booze cruise By Gary Takacs WCnewsmagazine WCnewsmagazine : 17. limit. Each person should know their personal limit to ensure they stay in touch with their surroundings. These small steps could make a huge difference by the end of the night. Most of this may seem like common sense, but there are always a few things that can be unclear when it comes to drinking. The laws, which apply to everyone, are a perfect example. Designated Drivers are the ones who need to know the laws; whether its open containers or transporting underage drinkers. The DDs are the ones who have chosen to take responsibility and there's no need for them to get into trouble when they are only trying to help. If you are uncertain about a law or just want to know more about consequences, dont ask a friend, ask an authority figure, or a creditable source. The best way to get information is to ask the local police department. Another excellent source available at Western Carolina University is SPARC (Study to Prevent Alcohol Related Consequences). The local police and SPARC are only here to help. Parties and other outings can be an excellent way to make new friends and maximize the college experience. Just remember to be safe while you enjoy the night! BAR SAFETY Just like any other university, Western has had its share of alcohol-related accidents. In order to combat this issue, the counseling center has been researching methods of safely transporting students from local bars back to campus. SPARC stands for Study to Prevent Alcohol Related Consequences; it is a Wake Forest School of Medicine research strategy for safer alcohol standards across North Carolina. Western Carolina University is one of ten universities that are involved with this program. Elizabeth Likis-Werle of the counseling center has been assessing students for about a year. She surveyed student organizations with questions on alcohol safety and what actions could be taken to prevent incidents on the roads. The safe ride program began taking shape with support from local businesses and the Student Government Association (SGA). There have been proposals for a budget for the 2006-07 school year in regards to what transportation could be used. Possible partners from Cat Tran to Jackson County officials, even local church groups, have been contacted with this issue. To help with the important details of this project, local businesses have been contacted to see which establishment could participate on certain days, what hours ~ they would participate and different ranges of financial support. This is not a definite addition to the life on campus, but it is a positive move towards public safety. For more information, contact Elizabeth Likis-Werle at 227-7469 or go online to http://wnc.us/spare and see what you can do to get Western one step closer to a safer ride home. -Dont Leave Your Drink Even if you take just a minute to go to the restroom, keep your drink with you at all times. -Don't Go To the Bar Alone Sometimes a night out can be fun alone, but having a friend is even better. -Be Careful When Meeting New People Part of the experience is going out and meeting new people, but keep in mind, you still dont know them that well. -Watch Your Drink Being Made Be sure you see the bottle the drink comes from, or open your own drink. -Look Out For Each Other Watch out for your friends. Even if you dont know the person and they seem to be in an uncomfortable situation, check on them. -Eat Before or During Eating before or during your night out will help keep the alcohol from causing problems later. -Know Your Limit 44
