Examines the impact of a recently adopted alcohol prohibition policy at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) on student drinking and binge drinking behaviors. Although survey (N=303) results indicate that students living in areas impacted by the alcohol policy are less likely to consume alcohol, RIT's alcohol policy appears to have no impact on binge drinking behaviors.
