Assembly to examine town alcohol policies

|

Grey Cusack / The Dartmouth Staff Student Assembly passed legislation to "examine and evaluate" alcohol policies in the Town of Hanover and their effect on the College's Good Samaritan policy at its Tuesday evening meeting. The Good Sam policy allows an intoxicated student or that student's concerned friend to call Safety and Security and, with no questions asked and no disciplinary ramifications from the College, receive a medical response. When the student involved is unresponsive or has a blood alcohol content of above 0.30, he or she is transferred to Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, rather than receiving treatment at Dick's House.
