Document Summary
The training program we plan on implementing is on alcohol safety . This training program will be targeted towards student leaders on bringing awareness to the dangers of drinking in a university setting. Specifically we will implement this training program as a mandatory training program to western fraternity"s, sororities and usc clubs that promote events and fundraisers where alcohol is consumed, such as the purple spur society and caisa. From results gathered through primary survey research, 81% of university students report that they have had a drink within the last month. Mental health binge drinking is defined as consuming five or more drinks within a two hour period for males, and four drinks or more in a two hour period for females. Based on this definition the majority of those students had participated in binge drinking without even knowing it. Based on an interview with an executive on purple spur society, there is a gap in awareness about alcohol safety.
