Awareness: Awareness is an effective tool at preventing binge drinking on campus. Students are often not aware of the negative consequences of binge drinking. The more we educate young adults, the more likely they are to drink responsibly.

Social Norming ; MI: Many student binge drinkers think everyone drinks until they black out. Provide data and highlight that outside their social circle many of their peers drink less, in moderation, etc. Learn about motivational interviewing techniques to help connect w/ students on this topic and work with their resistance.
