Results of CORE Alcohol & Drug Survey

Results of the CORE Drug and Alcohol Survey, administered in February 2009, have been partially released. The anonymous survey was given to 1,000 K students and garnered a 31 percent response rate. Dean of Students Sarah Westfall and Brian Dietz, Director of Student Activities, spoke Monday, Sept. 28 at an event disclosing some of the results. Partial results were released in the hopes of fostering discussion about what the results mean, and what steps the school should take to educate its students about alcohol. K last used the survey in 1998, and the school plans to begin administering it biennially. Following an identical presentation by Dietz and Westfall on Oct. 13, the full results of the survey will be released.
