Don’t Play Doctor
According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (www.collegedrinkingprevention.gov), over 1800 college students die each year due to alcohol-related injuries. In many cases, these deaths may have been avoided if their friends would have called 911 at the first sign of trouble rather than waiting until it’s too late. As part of Sigma Nu Fraternity, Inc.’s ongoing effort to combat alcohol abuse and misuse, we have developed, in partnership with Phi Delta Theta International Fraternity who created the original concept, the “Don’t Play Doctor” video. This video educates viewers on the signs of alcohol poisoning and what to do if a Brother appears to have consumed too much alcohol. If you ever find yourself questioning whether or not a friend has had too much to drink, call 911 immediately and get emergency medical support.

New Drug Arrests Alcohol Addiction in Rats: More than 15 million Americans drink too much, according to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism. New research on rats may help them curb that addiction. Rats given the drug for 28 days refrained from heavy drinking for another four weeks after they were taken off the drug. “That is currently the biggest challenge in alcoholism treatment,” which relies primarily on rehabilitation centers, Bartlett notes. When people return home, they typically also return to drinking. “Drinking stays down without the drug in place. It’s done something to permanently change and reduce the drinking.” K Thanxs!
