6 Executive Summary This report summarizes the results of a survey of the members of the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education s Council on Student Affairs on perceptions of student alcohol and substance abuse, and the current programs and methods utilized to address the issue. An overwhelming majority of the survey respondents felt that the most frequent substances abused by students are alcohol (indicated by 92% of survey respondents) and marijuana (84% of survey respondents). A substantial majority also felt that the same two substances most negatively impact student performance (alcohol indicated by 88% of survey respondents; and marijuana by 80% of survey respondents). The most common programs employed to address substance abuse with students are first-year or transfer student orientation program (indicated by 92% of survey respondents). More than twothirds (70%) of the survey respondents who listed this program indicated that attendance is mandatory. In-person workshop/orientation is the method of program delivery indicated to be the most utilized (100% of survey respondents). Survey respondents indicated that the most common alcohol and drug abuse services provided on campus are: Referrals by conduct office (92%) Referrals to treatment (88%) Substance abuse counseling (80%) Outreach to high risk groups (64%) The most common alcohol and drug abuse service provider on campus is the Student Affairs office, as indicated by 80% of the survey respondents. More than two-thirds (68%) of the survey respondents campuses have a licensed alcohol and drug counselor or other professional to provide alcohol and drug abuse services. More than half of the campuses (64%) do not have the service of physicians and/or psychiatrists to prescribe medications. The survey respondents indicate that the following programs and services provided through the campus are the most successful in addressing abuse: Substance abuse counseling (60% of the respondents), with individual counseling (100% of this group) and group counseling (80% of this group) In-person workshops/orientations (56% of the respondents) Licensed alcohol and drug counselor or other licensed professional (56% of the respondents) First-year or transfer student orientation program (52% of the respondents), with attendance mandatory in 85% of this group. The most common strategies used to measure program success are student conduct reports (72% of the survey respondents) and residential life incident reports (68 of the survey respondents). 1

7 Three-fourths of the survey respondents (76%) indicated that they check law enforcement reports on a regular basis for incidents, and almost the entirety of this group (90%) included campus law enforcement reports. Only one-third of the survey respondents (36%) monitor student medical emergency room visits. The most common help needed for more effective prevention is training (76% of the survey respondents), and additional staff (72% of the survey respondents). 2

8 Overview Included on the Council on Student Affairs (COSA) work plan was a desire by the membership to examine substance abuse (drug and alcohol use, excluding tobacco) by college students and share what appears to be best practices in reducing the incidence of substance abuse by these students. The chair of the council appointed an ad-hoc committee comprised of council members and state regent s staff, and asked the committee to develop a survey designed to capture the information needed to examine the aforementioned issues from council members. The committee, with the help Ms. Kim Poslick, Coordinator, Drug and Alcohol Center, Oklahoma State University, created the Campus Survey on Student Substance Abuse. The Survey was shared with COSA at its June, 2013, meeting and approved by the membership for distribution. The council was reminded by the chair, that survey results are intended solely for internal research use by the council only. However, since the Student Advisory Board (SAB) had also expressed similar interest by including on their work plan, examining substance abuse by college students, efforts would be made to share the results in aggregated form, in an appropriate forum, with that panel as well. Methodology Between June 17 and July 5, the survey was made available for on-line completion by council members. Members were requested to limit the information in the responses to the and academic years. In addition to determining COSA members perception of drug and alcohol abuse on their campuses, the survey also attempted to: (1) capture educational programs/services employed; (2) opinions on program/service effectiveness, (3) program assessment strategies used, and (4) the needs for greater prevention. The survey was sent (electronically) to 39 COSA members at both public and private institutions of higher education in the state. Responses were received from 23 public institutions (85% response rate) and two private institutions (17% response rate), for a total of 25 universities/colleges responding ( or 64%) of the total institutions asked to complete the survey. Specifically, fourteen (56%) of the institutions responding were from four-year universities or research institutions and eleven (44%) of the institutions responding were two-year colleges. Nine (36%) of these respondents reported 3,000 or fewer students. Three of the institutions reported (12%) more than 25,000 students in unduplicated headcount. The 25 institutions reported represent 82% of the total students in unduplicated head count for the academic year, and 90% of the total student enrollment using the fulltime enrollment standard. A large majority of the respondents have student resident halls, 22 (88%). Less than half of the respondents, 12 (48%), have Greek social organizations. Background Many college and university students bring to campus alcohol and substance use and abuse habits and behaviors formed well before matriculation. According to the Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System 2011 National Overview conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and 3

9 Prevention of 9 th through 12 th grade students in public and private schools throughout the United States, during the 30 days preceding the survey: 22% of students indulged in binge drinking (defined as five or more drinks of alcohol in a row) on at least one day Almost 40% of students had at least one drink of alcohol on at least one day Almost one-fifth (23.1%) used marijuana one or more times 40% used marijuana one or more times in their life. 1 Additional studies echo these findings. Alcohol is the substance most widely used by today s teenagers, with seven out of every ten students (69%) consuming alcohol (more than just a few sips) by the end of high school, and three out of ten (30%) by the 8 th grade. Over one half (54%) of 12 th graders in 2012 report having been drunk at least once in their life, and more than 90% of twelfth graders report easy or fairly easy access to alcohol. Use of marijuana within the last 12 months in 2012 is reported at almost 30% for tenth grade students and at almost 50% for twelfth grade students. More than 80% of twelfth grades students report easy or fairly easy access to the drug. 2 At the postsecondary level, the national CORE survey funded by the US Department of Education and conducted by Southern Illinois University among college students at two and four-year institutions for 2011 found that 69% of students consumed alcohol in the 30 days preceding the survey, including 63.4% of underage students. Forty-five percent of students reported binge drinking (five or more drinks in one setting) in the previous two weeks. Almost 20% of students used marijuana within the 30 days preceding the survey. 3 End Notes 1 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance United States, Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report 2012;61(No. 4).
