JMU Negative Alcohol Culture blog is looking at what can JMU do to change the culture at JMU. The literature on college alcohol issues and JMU reports, data and policies are reviewed and an invitation is issued to JMU to establish an Independent Alcohol Commission to examine JMU policies and change them in ways that will have a real impact on the JMU Negative Alcohol Culture.

Choose Responsibility-
I received a response to one of my post that encouraged me to look at the Choose Responsibility website (see link http://www.chooseresponsibility.org/for_educators/) It is an interesting discussion about the issue of the drinking age of 21 being lowered and explores a graduated licensing system. It examines some of the rational for exploring changes. I am not sure lowering the legal drinking age is the answer but I found the web site to be helpful to explore thinking about possible changes in law and policy that might impact the binge drinking pattern of young adults.
