Planning and programming server intervention initiatives for fraternities and sororities: Experiences at a large
1, .
Abstract:
A student health service and prevention research organization collaborated with a fraternity/sorority student planning group to establish an alcohol-problem prevention program for a 3,600-person Greek-letter community. Students created a program of multiple server-intervention strategies designed specifically to prevent problems with the use of alcohol at fraternity-house social events. Accepted as policy by students and the university, the program dealt successfully with several of these problems in its first two years of operation. However, early resistance by fraternity alumni advisors to the program's formal research/evaluation components has restricted further program development. The program is described in detail, and the resistance encountered by the program is analyzed as an issue for development of prevention policy in large organizations.
