In response the currently high rates of alcohol poisoning, many colleges are implementing medical amnesty policies; these are intended as a means to encourage college students to seek help when the symptoms of alcohol poisoning are present. These policies provide a student the promise of amnesty for university alcohol policy violations if they call for help in a situation where symptoms of alcohol poisoning are present.
According to a 2010 study done by the University of Michigan, women suffering from alcoholism suffer much greater effects on their daily lives than do alcoholic men.
The physical symptoms of alcohol dependence include an overwhelming compulsion to drink, the inability to stop or control one's drinking, and the need to drink larger amounts of alcohol in order to get the same effect, which is referred to as developing a tolerance.
Alcohol intoxication impaired brain function resulting in poor judgment, reduced reaction time, loss of balance and motor skills, or slurred speech.
