Two areas that required decision making were smoking and drinking, According to freshmen students, they drank for a variety of reasons: 'fl drink because everyone else does. lt makes me happy. 'fl wanted to try it. The first two quotes became the main reasons explaining why 31? of the 604 freshmen drank. There was no set pattern present in replies about how often they drank, Freshmen stafed that they drank as often as every weekend to as little as every few months. One favorite response was, Nl drink on special occasions. As far as how they got the first drink, the majority stated it was their friends who gave or experienced the first drink with them. Freshmen replied that they didn't want to be left out of the group while others drank for fun, Parents were the second major cause for freshmen drinking. One freshman was quoted saying his parents gave him some wine or other drinks on special occasions because it was a tradition. This freshman drank only twice a month but he was not sure he wanted to quit. Other freshmen students in the same situation were not sure they wanted to quit either. QINFORMATION ON ALCOHOL AND SMOKING can be found in the school library. M . . L, V ,wg A 4 :Y I m, ... ' Q if 1 Z' la f Allan Pfeifer Trang Phan Q .

Many of the freshmen continued drinking because the liquor was there, Family problems seemed to be another cause. The majority of the freshman class didn't think drinking was cool . But the majority of drinkers didn't want to stop. On the other hand, the majority of 17'X, of the freshmen who smoked cigarettes did want to stop. Many freshmen replied that they really didn't know why they started, but their first puff was from friends. Some freshmen indicated that their smoking started because they were bored and there was nothing else to do, while other students stated it was because of problems and nervous tension. Most freshmen smokers ,were light smokers. Many of the 171, who smoked averaged only one or two cigarettes a day. One freshmen admitted to one after every class. Others stated they smoked every other day, weekends or only a few times a month. When asked if they thought smoking was acceptable, the majority of the 172 replied, no. One student who smoked twice a day stated that he didn't want to quit, but even he had reservations. He stated, Nobody thinks you're cool if you smoke. Q Various pamphlets on alcoholism were availa- ble, while smoking information was scarce. Sm0king!Freshmen
