AlcoholEdu

Does anyone know how to get by or speed up the AlcoholEdu test thing for college kids? It gets kinda annoying after a couple hours.

Hi, could you post a link so we could look at it?

:)

Hi nihil,

I think this is it...

AlcoholEdu

Eg ;)

Looks like a standardized test with many/all colleges to teach about the problems of alcohol on campus and in life.

So can anything be done about this crap? I dont drink and theres no way I wanna do this

Note: I have no idea what this is about... just going by Eg's link...

LOL... so in order to graduate college you must prove that you know about the dangers of alcohol (or "Alcohol"....Hah). Back in college I had to prove that I despised the dangers of alcohol before they let me graduate :D

Anyways: take the test. If you're going to start college with an "I don't want to answer questions that I, in my ultimate wisdom, believe are not worth answering" attitude, then you're up for some surprises...

Oh **** it just watch Animal House

Well, you chose your college, and this is what they have to say:

With freshmen drinking a large problem at Northeastern University, new programs were put in place to help decrease drinking. One new program, which the Northeastern University’s Office of Student Conduct and Conflict Resolution (OSCCR) began using last year, was created by Outside the Classroom Inc. All underage students caught in possession, or consumption of alcohol must take the program's test, which must be completed online with a passing score of a 70 or better. Questions range from statistical information to effects alcohol has on the body and the mind. Wendy Olsen Interim Director of OSCCR said this year they are taking things a step further with the program, requiring all incoming freshmen to complete the online course.

Those are the rules ;)

wow.. where did you manage to get that? haha..

From your college's official website ;)

I am afraid that this is pretty common......................some guys screw up and everyone else suffers as a result :(

Did you know that some 1,400 college students die in the USA each year from alcohol abuse related incidents? :eek:

Some 400,000 people die from obesity each year....wheres the Anti-Sugar Class?

Nope, sugar is not the cause of obesity. Fat and carbohydrates are more likely. Actually salt is far more dangerous, and obese people tend to have excessive salt intake because they eat too much, and a lot of our food contains way too much salt?

In fact our government health people are having a big campaign about salt intakes right now:
