With the health and safety of students at top of mind, Georgia Tech has implemented a Good Samaritan Provision, effective March 1, as part of its Student Policy on Alcohol and Other Drugs.The Institute developed the Provision to support students who make an emergency call for any student whose judgment or health is severely affected due to alcohol consumption.
The Provision’s utilization is contingent on students completing any education or treatment recommended in response to an incident by the Office of Student Integrity or Department of Housing. Many other universities have implemented equivalent policies, including neighbors Emory University and the University of Georgia. Stein said the possibility of implementing such a Provision has been in discussion since at least 2006.
Students may familiarize themselves with the full scope of the Provision by reading it online in its entirety at the Dean of Students website.
