<p class=MsoNormal><b><i>Dear UC Riverside Students, Staff, and Faculty,<br>
<br>
</i></b>Caffeinated alcoholic beverages have recently been banned at two US
colleges following hospitalizations of several students from alcohol poisoning
following consumption of these beverages. Attorneys general from 18
states have become alarmed enough following incidents in each of their states
that they have asked the FDA to take action to investigate and restrict these
beverages. <br>
<br>
The Healthy Campus Climate Partners at UC Riverside (AVC/Dean of Students
Office, Campus Health Center, Counseling Center, Housing Services,
International Student Programs, Student Recreation Center and Well) would like
to take this opportunity to remind you of related resource options available to
UC Riverside students.<br>
<br>
<b><i>Specifically:<br>
</i></b> <br>
The Counseling Center at UC Riverside (<a href="http://counseling.ucr.edu/">http://counseling.ucr.edu/</a>)
offers various stress management resources that are available to UC Riverside
students to promote a good nights rest<br>
<br>
The Campus Health Center at UC Riverside (<a href="http://campushealth.ucr.edu/">http://campushealth.ucr.edu/</a>)
has a Preventive Care Specialist available to work with students on their
nutritional choices to promote good health. There are also physicians and
nurses available to consult with students about their health concerns.<br>
<br>
The Student Recreation Center at UC Riverside (<a
href="http://www.recreation.ucr.edu">http://www.recreation.ucr.edu</a> ) offers
various group and individual fitness options for UC Riverside students to
promote physical fitness<br>
<br>
The Well (<a href="http://well.ucr.edu/">http://well.ucr.edu/</a>) offers peer
counselors, online health and well-being related tools, and alcohol education
programs for UC Riverside students<br>
<br>
The Healthy Campus Climate Partners at UC Riverside are very concerned about
caffeinated alcoholic beverage use. Research shows that those that consumed
these beverages as compared to those who only consumed alcoholic beverages:<br>
-Were 3 times more likely to become highly intoxicated and<br>
-Were <i><u>4 times</u></i> more likely to intend to drive.<br>
<br>
We encourage our students to learn more about the dangers of consuming these
beverages and to be safe. <br>
