I encourage you to take full advantage of the educational opportunities offered during the conference and I am sure you will return to your respective campuses excited to continue the process of creating positive change and encouraging healthier choices among your peers. As you move about from opportunity to opportunity, be sure to take chances, split up from your group and attend different sessions, meet many new people, and above all have a great time! At the BACCHUS Initiatives of NASPA we take pride in having fun while making a positive difference in the lives of our fellow students.

The Educational Sessions On behalf of the Call for Programs committee that helped set the educational program for this conference, we invite you to get ready to learn, share ideas and network with other students, professionals, and law enforcement officers. This conference truly has something for everyone. The committee has worked diligently to create the best lineup of keynote speakers, pre-conference workshops, and breakout sessions. We hope that you are as excited about all the educational opportunities as we are.
Just a few hints as you set your schedule for the conference: Choose your program wisely (and early!) During every breakout session, there are up to seven choices. If you came with a group, we encourage you to split up and attend different programs. We expect most of the sessions to fill up quickly, so if you know you want to attend a session, get there early. Volunteers will be available to help direct you to other sessions, in case you need to make another selection.
A program may be listed for a specific audience- but that is just a suggestion! At this conference, we are pleased to feature special sessions for professionals, law enforcement, and students. In addition, you will notice that the program descriptions will include “tracks” and a recommended audience to help guide your program selection. However, this system is merely a guide for your use.
Your evaluations are extremely important Please fill them out and give the presenters some feedback they can use to improve the program. Please include any feedback that you think the Meeting of the Minds Planning Committee should know, since we read the evaluations as well. Don’t forget to bring your overall conference evaluation to lunch on Saturday- it is your admission ticket to the luncheon and awards ceremony.
Be a good audience member Giving presentations is risky, hard work, and not as easy as it seems. Please be respectful of the presenters and of the other people in the audience. If you choose a program session, stay in the session. Please do not sample many breakout sessions in one hour. While we encourage you to connect to social media at the conference, please silence your cell phones and please refrain from using your phone in a disruptive manner.
Attend all meal sessions Some meal sessions will feature a keynote address from invited speakers who are leading experts and professional speakers in the in the field of campus health and safety, wellness and health promotion, and substance abuse prevention. Their addresses will motivate you to return to your campus to make change.

Schedule of Events and Session Descriptions Thursday, April 7 7:30am-8:30pm Registration Table Open; Presenter Check-in Table Open Location: Main Lobby
Pre-Conference Workshops
Must be registered and paid in advance to attend 8:00am-5:00pm
RESPOND: Partnering for Campus Mental Health Presenters: Jessica Semler, Ph.D. and Christy Hutton, Ph.D., University of Missouri Counseling Center Location: Independence Mental health problems affect each of us. You can take action to RESPOND effectively. About 1 in 5 of us will experience a diagnosable mental illness this year. All of us experience emotional pain or distress at times in our lives. Most of us want to help yet often feel uncertain about what to do or say. RESPOND will empower you to offer effective support to a student or colleague. The course provides a basic overview of symptoms often associated with mental health problems and offers an action plan to help you RESPOND effectively. The course will address campus policies such as FERPA as well as mental health resources. 2:00pm-5:00pm
Build, Lead, Sustain: Strategies for Peer Leaders to Create and Manage an Effective Group Presenter: David Arnold, NASPA Location: Lakeview If you build it, they will come… but what do you do when everyone shows up? This pre-conference workshop will empower peer leaders from inception through the operation of an effective peer group. Whether your group aims to provide peer-to-peer support, or function as a health promotion agency on campus, this session will go through the tools you need to lead your group to success. Topics covered will include building a set operating documents, planning meetings, volunteer management, group leadership transition, and working with administrators to gain institutional support. Each peer leader will leave this pre-conference workshop with a planning document to take back to campus and implement the lessons learned in this interactive, informative pre-conference workshop.
Motivational Interviewing for Campus Police POST Credit Available Presenter: David Closson, Illinois Higher Education Center Location: Iowa Motivational interviewing is effective at fostering long term behavior change and lowering high risk drinking behavior. Students report that being arrested or receiving a citation as one of the most negative drinking related consequences, which suggests that by the mere presence of a police officer, the student’s own motivation to change will be higher. The presenter will highlight the benefits of bringing motivational interviewing to the front lines of campus policing in order to have a conversation about change when the student’s own motivation to change is elevated, close the time gap between the incident and the student conduct process, and provide consistent MI throughout the entire conduct process.

Title IX: Hot Topics, Promising Practices, and a Framework for a Robust, Comprehensive Title IX Response System Presenter: Professor Peter Lake, Stetson University College of Law Location: Liberty Title IX compliance responsibilities have expanded to encompass combating sex discrimination in many forms—from inequities in intercollegiate athletics to sexual harassment and sexual violence. What are the latest developments in Title IX? What are the most promising Title IX practices? How should colleges tackle the monumental Title IX training requirements prescribed by the Department of Education? What kinds of investigation processes are best suited to meet compliance requirements? How can campuses best assist victims and promote a campus culture free from sex discrimination? Title IX expert Peter Lake will discuss these issues, as well as present his Four Corners of Title IX Compliance framework.
Young Adult Addiction & Recovery 101 – Current Substance Use Trends and Best Practice Treatment for the College Aged Youth Population Presenters: Michael Bloodworth, Clinical Coordinator, ADVANCE, Preferred Family Health Care; Percy Menzies, President of Assisted Recovery Centers of America, LLC; Beth Sailors, Director of Adolescent Treatment in St. Charles/St. Louis, Preferred Family Health Care Location: Westport This Preconference is an opportunity to learn from State and National addiction experts about current trends, statistics, outcomes, and best practices related to assessing, treating, and providing effective interventions for long term successful recovery with the young adult / college aged youth population (18-26 years).

Key Components of Building and Implementing an Effective Bystander Intervention Strategy on Campus Presenter: Dorothy J. Edwards, Ph.D., Executive Director, Green Dot Location: Kansas This talk will examine the potential of bystander intervention as a strategy for prevention. The basic components of bystander dynamics will be explained, as well as their direct application to prevention efforts. An argument will be made for the utilization of bystander intervention with four basic tenets: (1) The numbers our on our side, (2) The research tells us exactly what to do, (3) It gives us the tools to break through historical obstacles to engagement, and (4) It allows for a more honest conversation about the realities and limitations of prevention. Funding for this session is administered by the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services, Office on Women’s Health, Contract Number #C315220001 through Grant Number UF2 CE002427-02 from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

6:00pm Welcome Dinner and Keynote Address: The Weaponization of Alcohol: Effectively Linking High-Risk Alcohol Use Prevention to Campus Title IX Efforts Keynote Speaker: Professor Peter Lake, Stetson University College of Law Location: Grand Ballroom Despite clear linkages between sexual assault and alcohol, why are campuses having such a hard time addressing these issues together under Title IX? How can we constructively discuss the role of alcohol in the context of Title IX without victim blaming? Alcohol does not itself cause sexual assault, but the weaponization of alcohol is one method used by perpetrators to prey on victims. Professor Lake will discuss the weaponization of alcohol, the important role AODV prevention staff have in campus Title IX efforts, and how Title IX efforts may increasingly focus on Safe and Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act enforcement. 8:30pm Conference Kickoff Event Location: State Suites, 3rd Floor Join peer educators and other students in NASPA Region IV to kick off the conference! Enjoy this fun, low-key event to meet other students and have fun! Snacks and door prizes available. 10:00pm Open 12 Step Meeting Location: Lakeview
Friday, April 8 7:00am-5:00pm Registration Table and Presenters Table Open Location: Lobby Foyer 7:00am-8:00am Continental Breakfast Available Location: Pavillion 8:15am-9:15am Keynote Address: Green Dot: A Practical Strategy for Bystander Intervention Keynote Speaker: Dorothy J. Edwards, Ph.D., Executive Director, Green Dot Location: Salons A-D Green Dot etc. is built on the premise that in order to measurably reduce power-based personal violence, a cultural shift is necessary. In order to create a cultural shift, a critical mass of people will need to engage in a new behavior or set of behaviors that will make violence less sustainable within any given community. The “new behavior” is a Green Dot. The Green Dot etc. curriculum and overarching strategy is informed by concepts and lessons learned from bodies of research and theory across disciplines including but not limited to: Violence Against Women, Diffusion of Innovation, Public Health, Social Networking, Social and Developmental Psychology, Communications, Theory of Planned Behavior, Bystander Dynamics, Perpetration, and Marketing/ Advertising. The Green Dot etc. strategy is predicated on the belief that individual safety is a community responsibility and shifts the lens away from victims and onto bystanders. This keynote will inform participants about the Green Dot strategy, proven effective by a growing body of research. Funding is administered by the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services, Office on Women’s Health, Contract Number #C315220001 through Grant Number UF2 CE002427-02 from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The ABC’s of RBS POST Credit Available Presenter: Nancy McGee Track: Law Enforcement Recommended Audience: Law Enforcement, Professionals/Advisors Location: Lakeview Retail Beverage Service (RBS) training has been identified as a promising strategy to reduce both underage consumption of alcoholic beverages and excessive consumption by youth and adults. Participants will leave this session with a clear understanding of the strategy, the effectiveness of the strategy and potential barriers to the implementation of RBS training programs. Topics to be discussed will include the components of a comprehensive program, online versus in-person programs, length of the program, costs associated with the administration of the program, as well who should teach the class. In addition, the session will look at how to overcome resistance to the implementation of an RBS program.
‘Compliance University’ and Trends in Higher Education Law and Policy Presenter: Professor Peter Lake, Stetson University College of Law Tracks: Alcohol and other Drug Prevention and Recovery, Violence Prevention Recommended Audience: Law Enforcement, Professionals/Advisors Location: Salon A Professor Peter Lake will discuss recent judicial, legislative and regulatory mandates impacting higher education with particular emphasis on issues related to student safety, wellness, discrimination and free speech. Professor Lake will also discuss the importance of strong multiculturalism efforts on campus and the impact of those efforts on safety, wellness and learning. Attendees will be challenged to imagine how the emergence of “Compliance University” is creating new academic disciplines and dialogues.
I am a Certified Peer Educator, Now What? MoSafeRx scholarship session Presenter: David Arnold, NASPA Track: Peer Education Recommended Audience: Students/Peer Educators, Peer Education Advisors Location: Salon B Having a well-trained group of peer educators is an important facet in incorporating a peer education group into prevention efforts at a college or university. Concentrating around recent literature, the presenter will provide an overview of what functional, evidence-based strategies can be implemented with peer educators, and how peer education methodology can incorporate evidence-based practices in alcohol and other drug prevention efforts. After this workshop, participants will feel empowered to start or improve practices in their peer education groups which are effective in preventing harm associated with high-risk alcohol and other drug use. While you do not need to be a Certified Peer Educator (CPE) to attend this session, implementing the practices covered will require the foundational-level knowledge, skills, and abilities covered in the CPE Training.

Current Drug Trends MoSafeRx scholarship session MACRO scholarship session Presenter: Angela Bonine, Training Coordinator, ACT Missouri Track: Alcohol and other Drug Prevention and Recovery Recommended Audience: General Location: Salon C Alcohol, tobacco and marijuana continue to be the most abused substances by Missouri youth. Recently synthetic and prescription drugs have been in the spotlight. This presentation will describe the current substances of abuse, how the media plays a role in their popularity, and provide resources for addiction prevention and recovery.
Do You Mind?: A conversation about consent on college campuses Presenters: Shelby Woodward and Shelby Fullerton, Relationship and Sexual Violence Prevention Educators, University of Missouri Tracks: Violence Prevention Recommended Audience: General Location: Salon D In the discussion of sexual violence, one of the most important terms is consent, but what is consent? Our time will be spent exploring the history of consent, definition of consent, how it can impact college students, and why it’s is so important. We often think of the “No means no!” narrative when talking about consent, but in our program, we’ll discuss how a lot of other things can mean “no” as well. Our hopes are to facilitate an educational and entertaining conversation about what consent truly looks like in sexual and everyday situations. So, we hope this isn’t too forward, but would you like to come see our presentation?
Campus Climate Surveys: When, Who, How, Why, What Next? Presenter: Holly Rider-Milkovich, Director, Sexual Assault Prevention and Awareness Center, University of Michigan Tracks: Violence Prevention, Evaluation and Assessment Recommended Audience: Professionals/Advisors Location: Salon E As prevention professionals, we know that having high-quality, population-specific data is essential to crafting the most effective prevention efforts possible. Campus climate surveys can be important tools to help fill in the missing information and help you understand your campuses’ specific strengths and challenge areas. This session will walk participants through a series of questions and considerations regarding whether a campus climate survey is the most appropriate data collection tool for their data needs, what institutional culture and profile features should be considered, what survey design options may best serve campus needs. This session will also walk through several case studies to provide participants with additional considerations for planning for the successful project implementation, dissemination, and data integration of a campus climate survey.
Movin’ Upstream Presenter: Kathleen Anderson, Upstream Prevention Tracks: Alcohol and other Drug Prevention and Recovery, Evaluation and Assessment Recommended Audience: Professionals/Advisors Location: Iowa-Kansas Individual programs are great, but many of us do not have the funds to reach all students on our campus with an individual program, and often those we do reach are those that have already started engaging in risky behaviors. Attendees in this session will leave understanding the Prevention Paradox and how we can leverage it to make big changes in our outcomes by moving the biggest population into a lower risk category through environmental management and strategies.

Impaired Driving Enforcement: What should it be; Saturation Patrols or Checkpoints? POST Credit Available
Presenter: Sergeant Christopher Bartolotta, Connecticut State Police Track: Law Enforcement Recommended Audience: Law Enforcement Location: Lakeview Impaired driving is a significant problem in the United States resulting not only in permanent injury, but all too frequently the tragic loss of life. Approximately three in every ten Americans will be involved in an alcohol-related crash during their lifetime. While drunk driving spans all ages, the data indicates that young drivers are at greater risk of experiencing the negative consequences associated with impaired driving. Motor vehicle crashes remain the leading cause of death for the 15-20 year old age bracket. In fact, 33 % of the 15-20 year old drivers involved in fatal crashes, had been drinking and 28% had a BAC of .08 or higher. Additionally, approximately 3 people under the age of 21 die each day in alcohol impaired driving crashes. It is known that sobriety checkpoints are frequently used as part of a comprehensive effort to deter alcohol-related driving and that they have been successful in reducing fatalities and harm generally associated with impaired driving. What is not always as clear, however, was whether this enforcement tool could effectively be utilized to prevent underage drinking and impaired driving? Research strongly suggests that when coupled with a strong awareness campaign, checkpoints do decrease alcohol-related traffic crashes and fatalities among youth. This course will introduce the concept of sobriety checkpoints, review the research that demonstrates the effectiveness of sobriety checkpoints in reducing alcohol-related crashes, outline the legal guidelines for sobriety checkpoints and discuss ways to incorporate specific strategies and implement sobriety checkpoints within your community in general and more specifically as an effective means of addressing underage drinking.

Alcohol in Society: Our Drink-Centric World MACRO scholarship session Presenters: Margo Leitschuh and Ellen Hinze, Student Wellness Advocates, University of Missouri Tracks: Alcohol and Drug Prevention, Peer Education Recommended Audience: Students Location: Salon E What do Beauty and the Beast, Nicki Minaj’s music, and a leisurely stroll through campus have in common? All three contain references to alcohol use. In this presentation we address how alcohol is all around us, all the time. The media and society bombard the public with alcohol branding and references, which creates the false assumption that binge drinking and overconsumption are the norm. As college students, we experience “party culture” and peer pressure, which can make alcohol an inescapable part of daily life. In this presentation we suggest programing both for the general student body as well as at-risk or recovering students to help police alcohol’s presence on campus and create an environment where alcohol is not the center of social functions.

Changing Teenagers’ Perspective on Drugs Presenter: Jennifer Rubin, Peer Educator, Southeast Missouri State University Tracks: Alcohol and other Drug Prevention and Recovery, Peer Education Recommended Audience: General Location: Arkansas-Illinois
Why do teenagers have such a desire to start doing drugs or alcohol? How can we use those reasons in a productive way to change their perspective on these dangerous situations? Improving their perspective could drop the rates of drug abuse as well as encourage teenagers to have better decision making skills in general. As students, police officers, and educators, it is important for us to remember the strong desire kids have to “fit in” and how badly the “social norm” needs to be changed. This class will teach you a unique perspective from a student who is heavily involved with law enforcement and has seen people’s direct consequences for their actions, yet understands the point of view from other students her age.

12:00pm-1:30pm Lunch and General Session Keynote: Big Tobacco Retail Contracts and Practices in Focus & Non-Focus Communities Keynote Speaker: La Tanisha C. Wright, Follow the Signs Location: Pavilion Big Tobacco spends nearly a million dollars per hour to market tobacco in the United States. Contracts give tobacco companies the authority to manipulate marketing. Contracted retailers must adhere to strict contract requirements. They often feel intimidated to discuss, alter, and/or dispute excessive or unwanted tobacco marketing. Non-compliance results in the suspension and/or termination of the retailer’s ongoing financial incentives. The majority of US retailers are contracted with at least one leading tobacco company. Tobacco marketing at retail stimulates unplanned tobacco purchases, plays an important role in brand selection, and discourages quit attempts and abstinence among current and former smokers. Low SES communities are heavily burdened with excessive advertising and greater allocations of promotions, often containing higher quantities of more addictive brand styles. Predatory tobacco industry retail marketing practices undermine the public health benefits of tobacco control efforts. The mission of Follow the Signs (FTS) is to 1) reduce tobacco-related disease, disability, and death by increasing awareness of tobacco industry retail marketing aimed at increasing tobacco use, youth access to tobacco, and nicotine addiction; and to 2) motivate youth and adults to practice resilience while enduring stress, bullying, abusive/unhealthy relationships, and other life challenges. La Tanisha C. Wright - CEO, public speaker, and author - is an internationally known, nationally acclaimed Tobacco Control and Anti-Bullying Advocate. In three years, she earned a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics from Spelman College in Atlanta, Georgia. She obtained an outstanding academic record that included participation in programs offered by NASA and the NAACP, and was a consistent member of the honor roll and Dean’s list. Upon graduation of college in 2000, she worked as a high school mathematics teacher in Charleston, South Carolina. 12:00pm-1:30pm Special Invitation Luncheon: New Horizons: Law Enforcement’s Role in Facilitating Recovery Sponsored by MACRO, The Missouri Alliance of Collegiate Recovery Organizations, funded by the Missouri Department of Mental Health

8:15am-9:15am For Students Only Breakfast and Keynote Address: Mixed Drinks, Mixed Emotions: Alcohol Abuse and Mental Health Keynote Speaker: Ross Szabo, CAMPUSPEAK Location: Pavilion Breakfast buffet will be available at 8:00am, please arrive early to eat breakfast prior to the keynote
How many times have you seen a friend openly discuss all of their emotions while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, and never talk about it again? Sometimes they forget what they have said. Other times they are too afraid to deal with it. A lot of times people are more comfortable addressing their emotions while they are inebriated. Self-medication has been one way college students have coped with difficult situations for many years, but it doesn’t have to continue. Forty-eight percent of young people with a substance use disorder have a co-occurring mental health issue. It is important to address the reasons why students may be binge-drinking, abusing substances, driving under the influence and engaging in negative behavior. The average college student today is facing overwhelming amounts of stress, workloads, transition, pressure and mental health problems. Often times they suffer in silence, hiding their fears until they become too large to deal with. This program addresses the ties between substance abuse and mental health. The goals are to break down the stereotypes surrounding expression of emotion in order to help young people function at their highest level and teach students effective coping mechanisms.

This session will lay the groundwork for demonstrating the power of social media and determining the difference between various platforms. Using examples from the truth® Campaign, participants will have the opportunity to understand how to optimize social media content across many platforms and how to better develop a social media following that will allow them to reach their audience in new and different ways.
Before the Breakdown Presenter: Ross Szabo, CAMPUSPEAK Track: Mental Health Recommended Audience: General Location: Arkansas-Illinois Many times after a tragedy occurs friends and family members come forward to say they saw signs that something was wrong, but they didn’t know what to do. It’s vital for students to learn steps to take in critical situations, to reach people before they break down. Sixty-seven percent of college students report that they first disclose their emotions to friends, yet two-thirds of students don’t seek professional help. This means friends are on the front lines of mental health. Participants will learn how to recognize warning signs, effective ways to approach a friend who is experiencing a mental health breakdown and what to do when someone is suicidal.
Engaging & Educating The Community We Serve Presenters: Kevin Hawkins, Police Officer; Kori Hoffman, Director of Student Conduct and Development; BK Taylor, Health Educator, Northwest Missouri State University Track: Alcohol and Other Drug Prevention and Recovery, Law Enforcement Recommended Audience: Law Enforcement, Professionals/Advisors Location: Iowa The ideology behind Engaging and Educating The Community We Serve is twofold. This innovative program was formulated to engage citizens to ensure lasting relationships and to deter crime. The collaboration with Student Affairs and the University Police transformed into a student engagement relationship which connected directly with the Northwest Missouri State University’s mission statement of “focusing on student success - every student, every day” (Northwest Missouri State University, 2015) and University Police’s pillars of success, “Stakeholders and Members” (Northwest Missouri State University Police Department, 2015). The outreach efforts of students, Student Affairs, and the University Police collaborating in this manner helps all students be successful at Northwest Missouri State University. Come hear about how this program has built trust and legitimacy with our stakeholders and how reporting of criminal and or concerning activity has grown significantly.

The Neurobiology of Sexual Assault Presenters: Abbey Tiell and Jake Kampschneider, Peer Educators, Hastings College Tracks: Violence Prevention, Peer Education Recommended Audience: General Location: Westport Fight, flight or freeze! In this presentation we will discuss how the brain reacts during a sexual assault and how it processes the memory of the incident. The highly traumatic nature of sexual assault causes an uncommon reaction of “freeze”, or tonic immobility. Hormonal releases during an attack hinder the brain’s ability to consolidate and encode the memory, making retrieval fragmented. This revolutionary research can be implemented in places such as law enforcement dealing with sexual assault survivors, college campus security, and peer educators. We will explore ways that peer educators can use these findings to better their campus sexual assault education.

Taming the Wild West: Campus and Community Regulation of E-cigarettes Presenter: Darlene Huang, Staff Attorney, Tobacco Control Legal Consortium at the Public Health Law Center Track: Tobacco Recommended Audience: Professionals/Advisors Location: Salon E The boom in popularity of e-cigarettes is mostly the result of claims that e-cigarettes are safer than conventional cigarettes. However, the clinical research on e-cigarettes is really in its infancy, leaving many concerned about the health impacts of these products. The federal government has not yet begun regulating e-cigarettes, which means there is no uniform regulatory oversight of the product’s manufacturing, distribution, or marketing—a regulatory environment that has been described as the “wild west.” A growing number of states and local communities have taken steps to tame the wild west by regulating the sale, marketing, and use of e-cigarettes. This session will describe the proposed and established regulations for e-cigarettes at the federal, state, and local levels to protect the health of users and non-users, reduce youth initiation to nicotine and tobacco products, and promote enforcement of already existing tobacco-free laws and policies. A range of policy options to regulate e-cigarettes will be discussed—from restricting youth access, to taxation, and how some colleges and universities have incorporated e-cigarettes into their tobacco-free campus policies.
Making Sense of Mental Health Presenter: Ross Szabo, CAMPUSPEAK Tracks: Mental Health, Peer Education Recommended Audience: General Location: Arkansas-Illinois Mental health issues can cause a lot of confusion on campuses.

Are Zero Reports Really Zero? Presenter: Robert Clay, Clery Coordinator, Lincoln University Tracks: Violence Prevention, Law Enforcement, Assessment and Evaluation Recommended Audience: Professionals/Advisors Location: Iowa The AAUW review on Nov 23, 2015 states that “91 Percent of Colleges Reported Zero Incidents of Rape in 2014.” What does this actually mean in terms of the Clery Act? How does the Clery geography affect the reporting? What types of institutions are included in the report? What information can we gain from the institutions that have not reported and the ones that have reported? How does the reporting rates in Missouri compare to the rest of the US? This program will answer these questions and give more insight on how to use the US Dept of Education’s Cutting Analysis Tool to review your University’s data to help you make decisions on where to focus various programs and other efforts to increase compliance with Clery regulations.
