Alcohol and illicit drugs are recognized as substances that may have a negative effect on the lives of college students. As a leadership organization that works largely with college students under the legal drinking age, it is recognized that alcohol is not needed for a good time or to promote positive growth. Illicit drugs can be lethal. All NACURH conferences, retreats, and meetings will be designated “alcohol and drug free.” The method of enforcement will be at the discretion of the Conference Staff, in consultation with the Regional Advisor, Regional Director, and the Advisor from the school the student represents.
