Alcohol Overdose

Alcohol overdose is a medical emergency and could be life-threatening. If you suspect someone has overdosed, call 911 immediately. Never let him or her sleep it off.

Symptoms include:

• unconsciousness or semiconsciousness;
• slow respiration: eight or fewer breaths per minute;
• cold, clammy, pale or bluish skin; or
• strong odor of alcohol
• These symptoms represent an emergency. Call 911 immediately.

Alcohol/Date Rape Correlations

Since 2006, Wisconsin has recognized alcohol as the No. 1 date rape drug. Nationally, the majority of acquaintance rapes are planned, and assailants take advantage of their victims鈥� use of alcohol and other drugs, which slow reflexes and impair the victim鈥檚 ability to recognize a potentially dangerous situation.

A bias incident is any discriminatory or hurtful act that appears to be motivated or is perceived by the victim or victims to be motivated by race, ethnicity, religion, age, national origin, sex, ability, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, veteran status, socioeconomic status or language. To be considered a bias incident, the act is not required to be a crime under any federal, state or local statutes.

Colleges and universities may handle bias incidents through grievance procedures, such as the student conduct process, or through educational programs to enhance awareness and enable prevention of such acts.

Rohypnol, a potent and fast-acting sedative, and GHB, a powerful depressant, are two drugs reported to be used at bars, raves and parties to weaken a potential sexual assault victim.

The odorless drugs are dissolved into drinks. Once dissolved, Rohypnol may leave a residue and GHB may give a salty taste, but both can be hard to detect in many beverages. Once the drug is consumed, the victim becomes weak, helpless or unconscious and unable to resist sexual advances.

When the drug wears off, the victim may not remember what happened or who participated because the drug often causes amnesia. Recreational use of these drugs also has been reported.

Physical incapacitation from using the drug(s) puts the user at risk for rape or other victimization. Recreational use also can lead to death from the physical effects of the drug.

Rohypnol

• Physical and mental effects: drowsiness, confusion, impaired motor skills, dizziness, loss of inhibition, impaired judgment, slurred speech, reduced consciousness, partial amnesia, hangover effect; person may appear drunk. When mixed with alcohol, Rohypnol reduces blood pressure.
• Also called: roofies, roaches
• Forms: white pill. It leaves a crumbly residue in liquid and turns the liquid bluish and murky.

GHB

• Physical and mental effects: dizziness, nausea, vomiting, confusion, seizures, respiratory depression, intense drowsiness, unconsciousness, coma, partial amnesia
• Onset of effects within 15 to 30 minutes and lasts 30 to 40 minutes
• Also called: liquid ecstasy, liquid G, Vita-G
• Form: a clear liquid that leaves a salty taste in beverages
• GHB is a mixture of lye and gamma-butyrolactone (GBL, a chemical compound) and varies in intensity, making it potentially deadly.

向日葵视频 Police Department officers are trained to help obtain medical assistance, counseling and related support for victims including contacting a confidential university victim advocate.

Sexual Violence Prevention Programs and Support Services

To help foster a safe and responsive environment, the university provides a wide range of prevention programming, education, resources and support services relating to sexual violence, which includes sexual assault, relationship violence and stalking.

Through a variety of educational programming efforts, students receive information that increases awareness about sexual violence issues and challenges beliefs to support risk reduction and prevention of sexual violence. The programming curriculum focuses on encouraging and supporting students in taking an active role in defining and preventing sexual violence.

Bystander intervention is encouraged through safe and positive intervention techniques and by empowering third-party intervention and prevention such as calling for help, identifying allies and/or creating distractions. Bystander intervention training highlights the need for those who intervene to ensure their own safety in the techniques they choose, and motivates them to intervene as stakeholders in the safety of the community. Through peer-to-peer training programs, students review situations where sexual assault can likely occur and develop and discuss strategies they can use to support each other.

向日葵视频 provides prevention and awareness campaigns for students, faculty and staff throughout the year.
