  23. Essentials Course Freshmen Requirement • Easily defined group • First semester (actually, the first six weeks of it) is a crucial time in the academic career of a new student • Many of the alcohol-related disciplinary incidents involve first year students • Many students already come to LSU with established risky drinking patterns

  24. Health Messages • Practice good safety skills- travel in groups, take well-lit pathways, lock doors and windows, protect personal information online. • If you get a credit card, only get ONE and pay it off EVERY month. • You don’t have to gain weight your first year in college. Eat healthfully and stay active! • It’s normal to feel a little stressed, sad or lonely at times when making the transition to college. • You deserve to be in a healthy relationship, built on mutual respect and trust.

  25. Health Messages • You do not have to drink or have sex to have fun at LSU. • Students who drink more than a few drinks in a sitting tend to get lower grades. • If you choose to be sexually active, practice safer sex…EVERY time. • Getting drunk is not the same as giving someone permission to have sex with you. • If a friend needs help, it’s better to say something than to be a bystander. • There are a lot of people on staff here at LSU who want to help you have the best possible college experience!

  26. A Parent’s Role Be clear about expectations • Attending class • Drinking • Financial responsibility • Study time vs. social time Keep open lines of communication • How are you doing? • Do you like your classes? • Are you feeling overwhelmed? • What can we do to help? Familiarize yourself with University resources
