Tufts Daily Editorial Applauds Changes to Alcohol Policy

See the two key changes the university made.

A Tufts Daily editorial, “Alcohol policy revisions long awaited,” commends the university for making two key changes to its alcohol policy.

A Sept. 9 article in the Tufts Daily, “Tufts adds Good Samaritan, Amnesty clauses to drug, alcohol policy,” outlines the changes:

“The new rules include a Good Samaritan policy, which states that no one who seeks treatment for oneself or others will receive disciplinary action, according to the Tufts Student Handbook. A new limited Amnesty approach also eliminates judicial sanctions for students for up to two instances of medical intervention due to substance abuse.”
