The pressures to drink can be quite compelling at times. In fact, peer pressure is the reason most people give for why they started drinking and continue to drink.  

In the college environment, there are also other pressures that can lead to drinking—i.e., relationships, stress, tests, academic disappointments, and even academic success.  

Learn to control these pressures by developing good time and stress management skills and don’t rely on alcohol as a means of controlling social and academic pressures.
