The Alcohol, Tobacco, and Other Drugs Prevention Center facilitates prevention education to Bowie State University students and the surrounding community.
Here's how we do it:
- Engage and empower peer educators to provide HIV and substance abuse prevention programming.
- Train peer educators to successfully create and implement campus-wide activities.
- Convene weekly advisory committee meetings to plan and coordinate prevention programming.
Is Cannabis Legal at BSU?
Just because marijuana is legal for consumption in Maryland doesn't make it legal on campus.
