The Risk Of Addiction For College Students

New Jersey, 06/25/2017 /SubmitPressRelease123/

College students and alcohol have been closely associated forever. In fact, as many as 60% of college students report drinking alcohol, and nearly 70% report they have had a drinking binge within the last 30 days. But it isn’t only alcohol that students are using, addiction to illicit and prescription drugs are on the rise on campus as well.

Most Popular Drugs on Campus

Alcohol is, by far, the most used substance on college campuses, with nearly 80% of students partaking. It is also the substance that causes the most problems for students, faculty, and staff on campus. According to the National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence (NCAAD), 95% of violence on college campuses is alcohol related.

Dangers of alcohol abuse: Unprotected sex, driving under the influence, assault, sexual abuse and rape, injuries, addiction

Adderall is considered a study drug because it helps students stay alert while they study. It’s presence on college campuses is becoming much more common. Adderall is prescribed for individuals who suffer from Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). However, about 20% of students admit to using Adderall for help with studying even though they do not have a prescription for it.

Dangers of Adderall abuse: High blood pressure, headaches, dry mouth, weight loss, depression, insomnia, overdose, and addiction

Marijuana is quickly becoming legalized in many states, and campuses are covered with it. On some campuses, marijuana is taking over the number one most used substance ranking from alcohol.

Dangers of Marijuana abuse: Distorted perception, anxiety, paranoia, difficulty thinking, loss of balance, short-term memory problems, increased likelihood of trying other drugs, addiction

Ecstasy is a party drug that was popularized in the nineties and is back on campuses in a purer version – MDMA or Molly. This drug is most popular with high school and college-aged people.

Dangers of MDMA abuse: High blood pressure, dizziness, overdose, loss of consciousness, seizures, kidney failure, heart failure, addiction

OxyContin is a prescription opioid painkiller that is considered the most abused prescription drug in the nation. While the drug may seem safer to college students because it isn’t illicit and doctors prescribe it, the truth is that year over year more college students die from OxyContin overdose.

Dangers of OxyContin abuse: Impaired judgment, overdose, injuries, accidents, risky sexual behavior, addiction

Why Do College Students Use Drugs and Alcohol?

Substance abuse is common among college students for many reasons. Any one of the reasons below can be a cause for a student to use, but many students experience two or more of them at the same time making drug or alcohol use even more likely.

Increased Freedom – Students just starting college are particularly at risk because they are often away from home and parents for the first time. Without parental authority, they are much freer to use drugs or alcohol.
Peer Pressure – College kids (like high schoolers) sometimes feel a significant need to fit in. Drinking or using drugs tend to lower inhibitions and may make socializing easier.
Academic Pressure – The pressure to excel in college may be very high for some students. They may feel that they need drugs to “help” them study or to help them unwind after.
Stress – College students have a lot on their plates – academics, social life, and often times, a job. Needless to say, they may have high levels of stress and that can easily lead to drug or alcohol use and abuse.
Curiosity – College students often want to try things that they haven’t before, and drugs or alcohol may be one of those things.
Availability –Drugs and alcohol are easily accessible on campus and many times they are free because students share with their friends.
Greek Life – Students in fraternities or sororities are 26% more likely to engage in binge drinking than students who don’t participate in Greek Life, according to the U.S. Department of Education.
Feeling Inadequate – College students may use or drink to overcome feelings of insecurity and low self-esteem.
The Path to Addiction

There is typically a gradual advancement from non-use of drugs or alcohol to full-blown addiction – it doesn’t happen overnight. Of course, the length of time it takes varies from individual to individual and there are other factors (genetic and environmental) that also play a part. While the length of time may depend on various things, the phases of substance use tend to be the same:

Non-use – This is the period of time before an individual has even tried the substance. They have no problem not using the drug.
Social Use – Most people who are not addicts fall into this category. They are able to use drugs or alcohol in a moderate way, typically during social situations. During this phase, they see drugs or alcohol as natural and acceptable at certain events.
Dependence and Addiction – Somewhere along the line, a recreational user crosses into physical and/or psychological dependence on drugs or alcohol due to increased frequency of use and amount of use. At this point, it will be very difficult for an individual to walk away from the substance without help.
Getting Help for College Students

There is good news for students suffering from drug or alcohol addiction – there are many treatment centers that are knowledgeable and equipped to offer them help. Whether they choose to attend an inpatient rehab center or an outpatient program, they are able to get on the path to recovery and get back to their studies.

Scottsdale Community Partners Announces New Volunteer Opportunities

June 27, 2017 – – Scottsdale Community Partners, a nonprofit organization in Scottsdale, AZ, is looking for volunteers for multiple programs. The nonprofit engages in a variety of different community projects. Currently, their focus is on Back to School and Healthy Packs, and they encourage volunteers to get in touch with them to find out how they can help. The organization’s website lists all the available Scottsdale volunteer opportunities.

Holly Snopko, President of Scottsdale Community Partners, says: “Our partnership with the City of Scottsdale allows us to help facilitate various programs and events with enthusiastic volunteers who are just as passionate about having an impact on our community as we are. We have a list of programs you can volunteer for and the contact information for each is available through our website.”

One of the main areas of focus for the nonprofit at present is the Covering the Bases: Back to School program. Being able to partner with the City of Scottsdale on this particular project is something that fills the company with particular pride. Various other faith, civic, nonprofit, and business organizations are taking part in the project to help those in the poorer communities of Scottsdale to have a fair start for the new school year.

Meanwhile, the Healthy Packs program is also proving to be popular. Jenny Adams, Executive Director of Scottsdale Community Partners, says: “Healthy Packs provides kid-friendly, ready-to-eat, nutritious food for the weekend, so that children can return to school each Monday, energized and ready to learn. This program is facilitated by Scottsdale Community Partners, the City of Scottsdale Human Services Division, and the Scottsdale Unified School District (SUSD).”

The Healthy Packs program started in 2011, when community members were shocked to hear from teachers that so many children went hungry over the weekend, resulting in poor and disruptive performance in schools. The program initially started at the Arcadia Neighborhood Learning Center (ANLC), serving just 25 students. Thanks to the efforts of Scottsdale Community Partners, its team of volunteers, and the support of the Scottsdale Unified School District and the city, over 400 students now receive food through this project. However, it is estimated that as many as 26% of students require help, which means there is still a long way to go.

New Circumcision Comedy Directed by Gary Griffin Launches TADA Theatricals, a New Chicago-Based Theatrical Producing Company


June 27, 2017 – Chicago, IL – The new Stan Zimmerman and Christian McLaughlin play, Knife to the Heart: The Circumcision Comedy, held a starry private reading on May 8, 2017, at Chicago’s The Second City, the iconic institution home to some of the world’s greatest comedy, produced by Steve Abrams, Tony D’Angelo, Stefani Nicole von Huben, Kim Stafford and Tommy Lipnick. Readings for potential investors and invited industry members are in preparation for a slated Chicago run in Spring 2018 at the Broadway Playhouse (exact dates to be announced), and mark the launch of new Chicago-based commercial producing team TADA Theatricals, led by Chicago theatre veterans Steve Abrams and Tony D’Angelo. TADA Theatricals will bring vibrant new work to audiences in Chicago and beyond, with a commitment to creating job opportunities for Chicago’s world-class arsenal of theatrical talent.

The cast for the Chicago reading of Knife to the Heart included Marilu Henner (“Taxi”), Esteban Andres Cruz (Domesticated), Jürgen Hooper (Brighton Beach Memoirs), Kierra Bunch (The Sun Always Shines for the Cool), and Chelsea Kane (“Baby Daddy”). Gary Griffin (Broadway’s The Color Purple, Associate Artistic Director of Chicago Shakespeare Theatre) directed and is scheduled to direct the world premiere in Chicago.

The play attracted much attention last fall following a Los Angeles reading at the Lex Theatre. That cast included Wendie Malick (“Hot in Cleveland”), Todd Sherry (“Parks & Recreation”), Katie Walder (“How I Met Your Mother”), and Josh Zuckerman (“Desperate Housewives”).

The debut of Knife to the Heart marks the first of many projects currently in development for TADA Theatricals as they forge a new era in Chicago’s vibrant theatrical legacy, and aim to galvanize its wealth of world-class theatrical talent to provide a launching pad for new commercial theatrical work. TADA’s Steve Abrams has been a force in Chicago theatre for more than two decades, at Steppenwolf, Harris Theater for Music and Dance at Millennium Park, Chicago Children’s Theatre and is the guest Artistic Director of Chicago’s massive Navy Pier.

About Knife to the Heart:

When Marshall and Julie Ann Katz discover that they have twin boys on the way, no one is kvelling more than Marshall’s mother Rhonda-queen of Texas organic foods, and the 21st century Jewish mother we’ve been waiting for. But when it’s time to decide whether or not to circumcise the twins, the whole family is pulled into an uproarious tug-of-war, with a little help from YouTube, a meddling gay schoolteacher, and more than a few centuries of tradition. By the time it’s over, there’s no telling who (or what) will be left intact.
