Students can also receive counseling if they have a relationship with an alcoholic, addict or problem drinker. Students will receive information regarding available support systems.

If you suspect someone has consumed a large volume of alcohol over a short period of time he/she/they may have alcohol poisoning.

Symptoms of alcohol poisoning could include:  

• Unconsciousness; cannot be awakened
• Cold, clammy, unusually pale or bluish skin
• Slow or irregular breathing
• Excessive vomiting or vomiting while passed out

If alcohol poisoning is suspected:

1. DO SOMETHING; don’t worry about the person’s subsequent thoughts or attitude.

2. DIAL 911 immediately.

3. STAY with the person and monitor their breathing.

Refer to the “Good Samaritan Policy” in the Student Handbook regarding providing assistance during alcohol abuse emergencies.

Alcohol and Drug Peer Educator

Alcohol and Drug Grant Educators (ADGEs) strive to provide education that will allow Stockton students to graduate not only with healthy minds, but with healthy responsible life choices as well. ADGEs work within a college community to promote greater well-being, provide information about specific alcohol and drug related issues, increase awareness of care resources on campus, encourage responsible safe choice-making, and advocate for changing and challenging campus social norms regarding healthy behaviors.

Alcohol and Drug Grant Educators should enroll in GEN2215, Peer Education: Drugs and Alcohol, which is offered during both the fall and spring semesters.
