Raising Awareness

Almost 500 WyoTech students attended Alcohol Awareness Day on Saturday. Students were given a free Alcohol Awareness T-Shirt and participated in over a dozen booths and activities. Students were educated on responsible drinking limits as well as the physical, financial, legal, and emotional consequences of excessive drinking.


A major theme was "0-1-3". This stands for 0 DUIs, 1 drink per hour maximum, and 3 drinks per night maximum. Following these limits will help students to stay below the level of impairment.

As always, the students especially enjoyed driving golf carts course while wearing drunk goggles and navigating the course in the "Drunk Goggle Challenge".


A swap meet, jalapeno eating competition, and a "Techer Toughman" were also included in the day's events. These events were free to enter and featured prizes donated by local businesses.
