On Friday, June 25, the CLC is sponsoring a College Student Forum (pdf) with SMU and Texans Standing Tall. The Forum will be at Wilshire Baptist Church in Dallas. The focus of the forum is the prevention of underage drinking and binge drinking at colleges and in their surrounding communities. The forum is a wonderful opportunity for churches to network with local organizations.

Research provides more reasons than ever for parents, students, college professionals, and other adults to be alarmed about the effects of underage drinking on Texas college-age youth. Among Texas college students, alcohol is the primary drug of choice – nearly double the use of other substances. Alcohol is linked to poor class attendance and low academic performance, unwanted sexual activity, depression and suicide, and alcohol poisoning.

Registration is free and is available at www.texansstandingtall.org. Participants will receive materials, breakfast and lunch at no charge.
