What is the e-CHUG?

The e-CHUG (electronic Check-Up to Go) is an interactive web survey that allows college and university students to enter information about their drinking patterns and receive feedback about their use of alcohol.

Alcohol

Do you know:

  • what counts as a drink?
  • the signs that alcohol is causing harm?
  • how many drinks are in a common container?
  • why “being able to hold your liquor” is a concern?
  • how much UIS adults drink – and where you fit?

Drug Prevention Policy and Program

I. Scope

This policy pertains to the possession, use, distribution, dispensation, sale or manufacture of cannabis on University property or as part of any University activity.

II. Background

There are risks associated with the chronic use of all psychoactive drugs, including alcohol. Adverse health effects can range from nausea and anxiety to coma and death. When drugs are used in combination, their negative effects on the mind and body are often multiplied beyond the effects of the same drugs taken alone.
