Number of High-Risk Episodes in Past 2 Weeks
High-risk drinking is defined as consuming 4 or more drinks for females, and 5 or more drinks for males*. A high-risk drinking episode is defined by the amount of alcohol an individual consumes in one occasion due to the fact that on average these amounts will result in a BAC above .08, significantly increasing the likelihood of unwanted negative outcomes to occur. The data can be broken down by a number of demographic options using the drop down menu.
Of Note:
- Approximately half of both males and females report not drinking in a high-risk way in the past 2 weeks.
- Male students who drink in a high-risk way are likely to do so more frequently than their female peers over a 2 week period
- In 2022, males were more likely to engage in at least one episode of high-risk drinking than they were in 2016.
