Student Housing & Residence Lifei. Student Housing and Residence Life distributes its Residence Life Handbook toall residents each semester. This handbook outlines all policies includingStudent Code of Conduct and additional policies regarding living on campus.This handbook clearly outlines additional restrictions and expectations foralcohol and drug use in residence halls and student apartments. Blazer Hall,Gold Hall (formerly known as New Freshman Residence Hall), and otherdesignated freshman rooms/suites are substance-free areas. Alcohol is notallowed in these locations whether the resident or guest is of legal age or not.Additionally, a detailed, bulleted summary of the Housing Policy on Alcohol &Illegal Drugs is posted on Student Housing and Residence Life website.ii. Professional and Student Staff are trained each semester by the UAB PoliceDepartment, the Office of Wellness Promotion, Student Counseling Services,and the Office of Student Conduct, on how to respond, report, and/or referstudents who violate the Housing Policy on Alcohol & Illegal Drugs or who needadditional resources to the appropriate office.iii. Residence Life Professional Staff also serve as Conduct Hearing Officers as anextension of the Office of Student Conduct. Professional staff may meet withstudents who have any number of policies including the Drug and Alcoholpolicies. These meetings and their sanctions are recorded through the Office ofStudent Conduct and are reflected in the data provided from that office.iv. A key strategy included in residential educational curriculum is havingintentional one-on-one conversations with students as an additional way toassess their needs in order to plan programs around what students actuallyneed rather than what we think they need. While some formal programs wereconducted to aid students in their understanding of the impact of drugs and16

alcohol, there were countless one-on-one interactions between the hall staffand students about substance abuse, alcohol use and safety, in addition to anumber of other personal conversations surrounding this topic. Because of thisadditional and intentional outreach to students, Student Housing and ResidenceLife staff was able to connect students to various campus resources (i.e.counseling, advocacy services, wellness promotion) to aid in further developingtheir understanding of alcohol and other drugs to provide support and resourceto those suffering from alcohol and/or drug abuse, and to provide support forthose that come from families who suffer from alcohol and/or drug addiction.v.
