Medical Assistance/Treatment
The College recognizes that in an alcohol or other drug-related emergency, the potential for disciplinary action by the College may act as a barrier to students seeking medical assistance for themselves, other students or guests; therefore, the College has a Medical Amnesty protocol as part of our comprehensive approach to reducing the harmful consequences caused by the consumption of alcohol or other drugs.
The College’s main concern is the well-being, health, and safety of its students. Medical Amnesty represents the College’s commitment to increasing the likelihood that community members will call for medical assistance when faced with an alcohol or other drug-related emergency. Medical Amnesty also promotes education for individuals who receive emergency medical attention related to their own use of alcohol or other drugs in order to reduce the likelihood of future occurrences.
