Whoa! Too much to drink tonight? Be careful! When we consume too much alcohol in a short amount of time, it can negatively impact our coordination and our ability to complete routine tasks that usually seem easy. At Fun with Beer Goggles, students will have the opportunity to complete seemingly simple tasks while wearing “Drunk Goggles” that mimic the vision while under the influence and test how well they are able to complete these activities.

Everyone has a right to choose what they want to do sexually. To make sure everyone is on the same page and having a good time during sex, consent is a vital part of our relationships. At this table, students will have the chance to learn about components of consent and put their knowledge to the test with scenarios. We will also discuss victim blaming to change the narrative that sexual assault is the victim’s fault. When speaking with a survivor of a traumatic incident, language is incredibly important, so we aim to educate students on how to avoid victim-blaming language in their personal lives.

Different types of beer, wine, and liquor can have very different amounts of alcohol. Not knowing the standard drink size for different alcoholic beverages can lead to us making poor decisions regarding how much alcohol we are consuming. At this table, students will participate in an interactive pouring activity to help them learn that “one cup” doesn’t necessarily equal “one drink.” They will also have the chance to engage in trivia about alcohol!
