Perceptions Of University Community Members Regarding Alcohol Restriction Policies, Katherine A. Meeker
Perceptions Of University Community Members Regarding Alcohol Restriction Policies, Katherine A. Meeker
Honors Theses
There has been a growing concern regarding sexual assaults on college and university campuses. The push to decrease sexual assaults has lead researchers and universities to examine alcohol abuse as a contributing factor. Many colleges and universities have developed new policies for alcohol restriction, but they have done so without taking into consideration the views of the campus community. In the absence of collaboration between the campus community and university administration, such policies will likely be ineffective. This study explores the beliefs, perceptions, and attitudes of the campus community regarding alcohol restriction policies at The University of Southern Mississippi.
