Dear Oneonta Student Athlete,
Alcohol misuse is one of the most serious issues facing today’s colleges. The Oneonta Community is committed to confronting this issue with a combination of education and prevention of alcohol-related consequences among our students. We know that a substantial percentage of college students drink in moderation in addition to the 20% or so who abstain from alcohol altogether. However, a number of students misuse alcohol and create disruption in their own lives and the lives of other community members.
As a student athlete, it is vital that you embrace the mission of the athletic department. The principles of excellence and integrity must guide your decision-making. We strive to develop exemplary scholar athletes and alcohol abuse incidents not only jeopardize this intent, but dishonor other student athletes.
Oneonta encourages students to make safe, healthy and legal choices about personal alcohol use and non-use. As such, we would like you to have a basic understanding of alcohol-related issues on campus. This 90-minute course focuses on building skills to avoid alcohol-related consequences, learning how to handle alcohol-related emergencies, and developing strategies to help others who struggle with alcohol misuse. We wish you a healthy, positive and successful college experience!
Sincerely,
Tracey Ranieri,
Athletic Director
