A multi-tiered effort designed to stem binge drinking at a large university and to change the campus drinking culture has produced notable results during a 2.5-year Indiana University study. Freshmen living on campus showed significant drops in the average number of drinks consumed in a week; in the percentage who drank at least once a week in the last year; and in the proportion of students who engaged in binge drinking in the previous week.
