In July 1997 the U.S. Department of Education’s Higher Education Center for Alcohol and Other Drug Prevention, with support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, convened an invitational faculty leadership symposium on preventing alcohol and other drug (AOD) problems in higher education. The symposium, held at the University of Massachusetts at Boston, brought together 40 participants, including faculty, student leaders, administrators, and Center staff. The report highlights the variety of thoughts and contributions offered on such topics as faculty as leaders in campus-based AOD prevention initiatives: faculty roles in raising public discussions, increasing faculty-student interaction, conducting campus-based research, restructuring academic requirements, creating a bridge between academic affairs and student affairs, using technology to teach prevention, and linking university resources with the community.
