TY - JOUR PY - 2001// TI - Preventing Alcohol-Related Problems at the University of Arizona's Homecoming: An Environmental Management Case Study JO - American journal of drug and alcohol abuse encompassing all addictive disorders A1 - Johannessen, Koreen A1 - Glider, Peggy A1 - Collins, Carolyn A1 - Hueston, Harry A1 - Dejong, William SP - 587 EP - 597 VL - 27 IS - 3 N2 - In 1995, the University of Arizona installed and publicized new policies to provide better alcohol control during its annual homecoming event. Systematic observation at pregame tents revealed that, compared to 1994, these policies led to a lower percentage of tents selling alcohol, elimination of beer kegs, greater availability of food and nonalcoholic beverages, the presence of hired bartenders to serve alcohol , and systems for identification checks.These changes were still in evidence through 1998. In 1995, campus police also saw a downward shift in the number of neighborhood calls for complaints related to homecoming activities, which was maintained through 1998. Statistics on law enforcement actions were inconsistent. There was a sharp drop in 1995, but 1996 and 1999 saw enforcement levels similar to what was seen prior to the new policies. This case study underscores the importance of environmental management strategies for campus-based alcohol and other drug prevention.
