Drug and Alcohol Abuse Prevention Program (DAAPP)

In accordance with the Drug Free Schools and Campuses Act of 1989, Florida State University (FSU) steadfastly upholds its commitment to maintaining a drug-free environment conducive to academic success and personal growth. The Drug and Alcohol Abuse Prevention Program (DAAPP) at FSU stands as a proactive measure to fulfill this mandate, ensuring the well-being and safety of its diverse student population.

The DAAPP report provides a comprehensive overview of FSU's multifaceted approach to substance abuse prevention and education. Grounded in evidence-based practices and federal guidelines, the university implements targeted initiatives aimed at raising awareness, promoting healthy decision-making, and supporting students in navigating the challenges associated with substance use.

By leveraging strategic partnerships and ongoing assessments, FSU continually refines its prevention strategies to address the evolving landscape of substance abuse among college students. The report not only demonstrates FSU's compliance with regulatory requirements but also underscores its proactive stance in fostering a supportive campus culture that values health, safety, and academic achievement.

In this DAAPP you will find university policies and regulations related to drug and alcohol abuse prevention; local, state, and federal laws regarding drugs and alcohol; the health risks associated with the use of drugs and alcohol; the programs and intervention efforts provided by the university; and the disciplinary sanctions associated with violations of university policies and regulations.

In addition, FSU must conduct a biennial review to measure the effectiveness of its DAAPP, and to ensure consistent treatment in enforcement of its disciplinary sanctions:

Health Risks Associated with the use of Drugs and Alcohol

Source: Drug-Free Workplace Policy

Alcohol consumption causes a number of marked changes in behavior. Even low doses significantly impair the judgment and coordination required to drive a car safely, increasing the likelihood that the driver will be involved in an accident. Moderate doses of alcohol also increase the incidence of a variety of aggressive acts, including murder, rape, armed robbery, vandalism, spouse and child abuse, and drunk driving. Moderate to high doses of alcohol can cause marked impairment in higher mental functions, severely altering a person's ability to learn and remember information. Heavy use may cause chronic depression and suicide and is also greatly associated with the abuse of other drugs. Very high doses cause respiratory depression and death. If combined with other depressants of the central nervous system, much lower doses of alcohol will produce the effects described. The use of even small amounts of alcohol by pregnant women can damage their fetus.

Long term heavy alcohol use can cause digestive disorders, cirrhosis of the liver, circulatory system disorders and impairment of the central nervous system, all of which may lead to an early death. 1 of 2 Repeated use of alcohol can lead to dependence, particularly in persons with one or more parents or grandparents who were problem drinkers. At least 15-20% of heavy users will eventually become problem drinkers or alcoholics if they continue drinking. Sudden cessation of alcohol intake is likely to produce withdrawal symptoms including severe anxiety, tremors, hallucinations and convulsions, which can be life threatening.

All illicit drugs are health threatening. Examples include cannabis - impairment of short-term memory and comprehension and ability to perform tasks requiring concentration, lung damage, paranoia and possible psychosis; narcotics, depressants, stimulants and hallucinogens - nervous system disorders with possible death the result of an overdose. Illicit inhalants can cause liver damage. Dependence and addiction are a constant threat to users. AIDS is widely spread among intravenous drug users.

Disciplinary Sanctions

Standard of Conduct

The University Standard of Conduct is that no employee will report to work under the influence of or unlawfully possess, use, or distribute illicit drugs and alcohol on university property or as part of any University activities.

Legal Sanctions

State law prohibits the possession of alcoholic beverages by persons under age 21, punishable for the first offense by a definite term of imprisonment not exceeding 60 days and/or a $500 fine, and for a subsequent offense by a definite term of imprisonment not exceeding 1 year and a fine of $1,000. It is similarly prohibited and punishable to distribute alcohol to minors. State law makes it a crime for any person to possess or distribute illicit drugs (controlled substances as described in Section 893.03, Florida Statutes) under Section 893.13, Florida Statutes. Law provides certain limited exceptions. The crimes range from second-degree misdemeanors (up to 60 days imprisonment and up to a $500 fine) to first-degree felonies (up to 30 years imprisonment and up to $10,000 fine). Trafficking (distributing specified large quantities of various controlled substances under Section 893.03, Florida Statutes) under Section 893.135, Florida Statutes is punishable, depending on the particular illicit drug, quantity involved and location, by a minimum term of imprisonment of 3 to 30 years and a fine of $25,000 to $500,000. Federal trafficking penalties for first offenses, depending upon the illicit drug involved, range from not more than 1 year imprisonment and a fine of not more than $100,000 for an individual to 40 years to life imprisonment and a fine of not more than $200,000 for an individual to not less than life imprisonment and a fine of not more than 8 million dollars for an individual. Florida State University requires that an employee notify the employer of any criminal drug statute conviction for a violation occurring in the workplace no later than five days after such conviction.

Institutional Disciplinary Sanctions

The University will impose disciplinary sanctions on employees who violate the standards of conduct described.

The disciplinary sanctions for the illegal possession, use or distribution of illicit drugs and alcohol, reporting to work under the influence, and using alcohol or drugs while on duty will be consistently enforced and will range from a written reprimand to a 3-day suspension without pay on the first occurrence, up to and including or dismissal from employment on the first occurrence.

Sanctions will be taken in accordance with applicable collective bargaining agreements and/or other applicable policies and procedures, as well as referral for violation of the criminal law. A sanction may also include the completion of an appropriate rehabilitation program.

Florida State University requires all current employees (excluding faculty) to inform their supervisor within two business days if arrested for any felonies or first -degree misdemeanors (or the equivalent thereof in another state). The employee must also notify their supervisor of the final disposition of their case within two business days. In both circumstances, the supervisor must immediately consult with the Office of Human Resources, Employee & Labor Relations section, to determine if the offense is job related and for additional guidance.

Drug Free Workplace

No employee will report to work under the influence of or unlawfully possess, use, or distribute illicit drugs and alcohol on university property or as a part of any University activity.

Tobacco-Free Campus

For the health and wellness of the campus community, tobacco use, including simulated tobacco use such as electronic cigarettes, is prohibited on property, interior and exterior, owned or managed by Florida State University within the State of Florida. Tobacco is not permitted in university facilities, common or private work areas, elevators, hallways, garages, restrooms, dining areas, employee lounges, conference, and meeting rooms, and all other enclosed or semi enclosed areas. Additionally, no tobacco use will be permitted in outdoor areas including parking lots, parking garages, grounds, rooftops, plazas, courtyards, entrance/exit ways, University owned or leased vehicles, and any other indoor or outdoor areas owned or managed by the University. This policy applies to all Florida State University students, employees, consultants, contractors, visitors, external individuals, and companies renting university-owned or managed space. It is important that everyone participates in the establishment and maintenance of our tobacco-free campus. This shared enforcement responsibility will ensure a healthy environment for all of us, as well as reduce the hazards, accidental fires, and costs associated with the disposal of discarded tobacco products.

Student Outcomes

Outcomes are status designations or education assignments that alone or in any combination are assigned to a student as a final outcome at the conclusion of a resolution process.

The purpose of outcomes through the student conduct process is to facilitate student accountability, learning, and overall wellness. The outcomes listed below are not intended to serve as an exhaustive list of all outcomes the University may be able to utilize regarding a given student conduct concern. Source: Student Conduct Code

1. Status Outcomes

Reprimand. A notice in writing to the student that the student is violating or has violated University expectations for behavior and that further violations may result in more severe disciplinary action.

Whether an individual is eligible for a refund upon withdrawal or cancellation is dependent upon the University's refund schedule. Depending on the length of the suspension, a suspended student may be subject to University policies and Page 41 of 46 requirements regarding readmission. If a student is required to apply for readmission, readmission is not guaranteed after a period of suspension is completed; and the student is responsible for communicating with the Office of Admissions to identify appropriate process(es) for re-entry at the expiration of the suspension period and when any terms of suspension or other outcomes are satisfied.
Explusion. Separation from the University without the possibility of readmission. The University will withdraw the student from any current courses and cancel any future enrollment. Whether an individual is eligible for a refund upon withdrawal or cancellation is dependent upon the University's refund schedule. In addition, the individual may be restricted from University property. This status will be noted on the individual's academic transcript and will constitute a disciplinary record that will remain on file indefinitely.
Degree Withdrawal or Revocation. A degree may be withdrawn or revoked when a student has graduated, and an incident occurred before graduation in the following circumstances:
1. The student has a pending conduct hearing that was scheduled before or as the student graduated; or
2. At any time after the student has graduated or received a degree, the University becomes aware of an incident involving an alleged violation of this Code that took place before the student graduated or received a degree from the University.
  The student will receive the degree once the matter is resolved and any outcomes (when applicable) are completed unless the outcome is expulsion, in which case the degree may be revoked.

Interpersonal Violence Prevention Comprehensive Program and Interventions

Community Expectations

It is important to FSU that our community norms are that we do not tolerate violence on our campus. Florida State University prohibits the crimes of dating violence, domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking. The kNOw MORE sexual violence prevention initiative is about action, education, and the continuum of care for our students, faculty, and staff. This is a one stop location for resources available to students, faculty, staff, family members and community members to obtain the needed resources related to sexual violence. Resources are available at knowmore.fsu.edu.

Program: Green Dot (Bystander Intervention)
Description: Green Dot is a bystander intervention initiative that recognizes that most people care about the high prevalence of power-based personal violence but do not have the tools to know how to be part of the solution. Green Dot seeks to change the culture by activating people that may not have been directly impacted by power-based personal violence. The Green Dot Program takes a multi-level approach engaging both faculty & staff, as well as students to prevent violence through bystander intervention. Green Dot focuses on creating campus-wide culture change through the diffusion of knowledge and bystander intervention skills. A Green Dot is a behavior, choice, or action that promotes safety for everyone. It communicates intolerance for sexual violence, dating violence, and stalking. Green Dot trainings are 3 hours and are offered for students or faculty/staff separately. Attendees leave with additional skills and a certificate of completion. Green Dot Overviews are offered in 60 – 90-minute increments and offer an overview of what the training will be like. The four steps of bystander intervention are: Recognize warning signs (also known as red dots) Identify barriers or things that would prevent you from intervening Intervene (also known as reactive green dots) Strengthen positive campus norms (also known as proactive green dots) If you see something, here are some ways you can intervene using the 3 Ds of Green Dot bystander intervention: Direct: Take a direct approach. If you see something that looks concerning to you, address it directly with those involved. Ask if everyone is okay and if you can help the situation. Delegate: If you do not feel comfortable intervening yourself, you can ask someone else to help who may be more equipped. Ask for a friend to help you distract or confront, find the person’s friends and tell them you are concerned about their friend’s safety, or call law enforcement. Distract: You can indirectly intervene by intentionally distracting those involved. Ask for directions, spill a drink, or engage them in conversation.
