CONDUCT
community." Without needing to
focus on enforcing violations of a
minimum drinking age, the policy
instead clearly outlines standards for
behavior when consuming alcohol
individually and at social functions,
stating that consumption should
be safe, regulated, and responsible.
Bayley adds that detailing the
regulations and resulting penalties has
resulted in a decrease in violations and
incidents. "By bringing in such a black
and white policy across the board,
we've seen a massive shift in culture
in relation to alcohol amongst other
trouble behaviors as the students have
clear and consistent approaches and
consequences."
In a similar vein, six residential
organizations across four states in
Australia are piloting an initiative
called UniCAN. This partnership
between Alcocups, an alcohol and
drug education organization, and the
34
TALKING STICK
Australasian Association of College
and University Housing Officers
is an accreditation program that
provides each participating residential
organization or university with an
identifiable mark that outlines and
celebrates their commitment to
addressing alcohol-related issues. This
is achieved through educational and
assessment steps that set standards for
campuses and departments to educate
staff and students in relation to drug
and alcohol consumption, promote
responsible drinking, encourage
non-alcoholic alternatives, reduce
alcohol-related incidents, promote an
institution-wide approach to alcohol
and drug management, and recognize
those institutions that are adopting
a proactive approach to alcohol
management.
In Canada, meanwhile, campuses
must compensate for the fact that
drinking ages vary by province. For
example, while Ontario has a drinking
age of 19, in Alberta, Manitoba, and
Quebec it is 18. This means that an
18-year-old student from Quebec who
goes to the University of Windsor
in Ontario would be able to drink
legally at home but not on campus.
Jacqueline Mellish, a residence life
coordinator at Windsor, reflects that
it's a transition for many students and
that attitudes towards alcohol vary
based upon the culture of a province
or territory as well, which impacts how
she must work with students in her
area. The policy at the University of
Windsor is rooted in the statement,
"First and foremost all policies follow
the laws of the land." The alcohol
policy and corresponding sanctions
are broken into three levels, based
upon the student's age and the severity
of the violation. For example, of-age
students found with alcohol in a
common space will face a lower level
