National research has continually shown that college campuses nationwide foster many alcohol and drug use behaviors. It is suggested that faculty and staff may hold several misperceptions in regard to the prevalence and nature of the alcohol and drug use. Many college campus employees may tolerate the use and abuse of alcohol and drugs which may in turn lead students to mistake tolerance for acceptance. This study was conducted to determine the level of difference for levels of perceptions of campus policy and the amount of tolerance for alcohol and drug use for employees at the University of Wisconsin-Stout. Participants completed the Faculty and Staff Environmental Alcohol and Other Drug Survey to measure both their level of perceptions and their level of tolerance. Results would be used to determine whether knowledge and awareness of campus policy would heighten awareness of alcohol and drug use on campus as well as decrease levels of tolerance in a college campus environment.
