NCAAW 2000 - Building Bridges

For years, university educators have been grappling with collegiate alcohol abuse in a variety of ways.

How to best deal with the complex issues, responsibilities, and liabilities, how to be an instrument for change in the prevailing collegiate environment, is the challenge facing all university people.
