Bio/Research

My current research focuses on college drinking. My current book, The Misperception of College Drinking: Pluralistic Ignorance and Campus Life highlights that most students drink responsibly or not at all. In order to reach the minority of students who have drinking problems, student leaders must take the lead in educating their peers about what constitutes responsible drinking, teaching them to intervene with those who drink too much and get into trouble, and assist those in need of treatment to get it. This strategy may be used to change other misperceptions about campus life: hazing, mental health, diversity and inclusion, and sexual violence.
