Student Feedback:

"I found your handouts and the activities we did to be extremely informational and I'm absolutely going to hold onto them for reference in the future. I truly intend on changing my drinking habits and I definitely feel comfortable coming to your office in the future for my guidance."

"OPEN has been an eye-opening experience for me. To be able to talk about an issue related to alcohol without risk of getting in trouble is a great resource and I recommend all to take advantage of this."
