BASICS
(Brief Alcohol Screening and Intervention for College Students)
University
Health Services (Phone 7-5071)
http://www.umass.edu/uhs/cadap/basics/
BASICS helps students explore their alcohol and drug use in a non-judgmental
and non-confrontational environment. The goal of the program is to reduce
risky behaviors and harmful consequences of high-risk alcohol use. The
program involves two 50-minute sessions, typically spaced two weeks apart,
and conducted one-on-one with a Prevention Specialist and the student.
In the first session, students review their reasons for attending, discuss
their history with alcohol and other drugs, and complete a confidential
web-based questionnaire. During the second session, students receive
a personal feedback profile regarding their use of alcohol and other
drugs, based on information they provided during the first session. Feedback
includes strategies to lessen the risk of experiencing consequences and
developing future problems as a result of high-risk drinking. Students
also have the opportunity to learn how their drinking compares to other
UMass Amherst students. Students with personal alcohol-related concerns
may self-refer to BASICS to assess their own risks. For first- and second-time
alcohol policy violations, students may be required to attend BASICS.
Students who are seen medically for an alcohol-related incident will
also be referred to BASICS.
