While most Eastern students are busy this week gearing up for their week away from campus, the members of BACCHUS were busy encouraging students to make safe, responsible choices this spring break.

The second annual Safe Spring Break Bash was held Wednesday in 7th Street Underground.

BACCHUS President Jessica Galloway, a junior speech pathology major, said the group received donations from area businesses that were raffled off as door prizes through out the event.

Activities that were available to Eastern students at the spring break bash included a drunk driving simulation with fatal vision goggles, seat belt relays and information tables addressing safe sex and skin care.

Students also had the opportunity to put on the fatal vision goggles and play a video game that simulates driving under the influence of alcohol.

The seat belt races were designed to promote seat belt usage. Students that could get all four people to buckle up first could win a free personal pan pizza from Pizza Hut

“DJs By Name” provided music for the bash.

BACCHUS is a student-run peer education group with a mission of creating a safer, healthier, campus community one student at a time. Galloway said that the group had expected a good turn out, but they also feared that the nice weather may have been one reason for the low student turnout.

“We hope we made impact on as many students as we could, but even if we only influenced one student, it was worth it,” she said.
