• Death: 1,400 college students between the ages of 18 and 24 die each year from alcohol-related unintentional injuries, including motor vehicle crashes.
• Injury: 500,000 students between the ages of 18 and 24 are unintentionally injured under the influence of alcohol. ...
• Sexual Abuse: More than 70,000 students between the ages of 18 and 24 are victims of alcohol-related sexual assault or date rape. ... 1 million students between the ages of 18 and 24 drove under the influence of alcohol last year.
• Vandalism: About 11 percent of college student drinkers report that they have damaged property while under the influence of alcohol.
