Educational Posters

The wellbeing of our members is a priority of Alpha Chi Omega. To this regard, we have teamed with Zeta Tau Alpha, Pi Kappa Phi and Sigma Nu to create a series of educational posters addressing ways members can reduce risks to themselves or others. Each one addresses a topic common on college and university campuses, like alcohol consumption and hazing prevention.

Distributed to chapters nationwide, the posters are intended to launch conversations among members about topics that may affect them, their friends and their campus community.

Healthy v. Unhealthy Relationships		The spring 2019 poster explores healthy and unhealthy relationship behaviors and empowers members to trust their gut when they are questioning a situation or experience. We have partnered with the One Love Foundation in developing content to educate members about relationship behaviors knowing that over 1 in 3 women experience unhealthy relationship behaviors. We have provided One Love’s Healthy & Unhealthy Relationships Behaviors Explained with the 10 signs of a healthy and an unhealthy relationship and a list of national resources to continue the conversation on your campus.
Vaping is Smoking		The winter 2019 poster educates about the misconceptions around health impacts of e-cigarettes, most recently referred to as JUULs. The poster and conversation guide explain that while vaping is safer than traditional cigarette smoking, e-cigarettes still contain nicotine which is highly addictive and has heath ramifications including lasting brain impacts such as nicotine addiction, mood disorders and permanent lowering of impulse control.

Know Your ABVs		The second fall 2018 poster educates on alcohol by volume (ABV). The poster and conversation guide explain that the standard measurement of the alcohol content of drinks is ABV. Alcoholic beverages such as beer, wine and hard seltzer all have less than 15 percent average ABV making them safer options than hard alcohol as studies show drinks poured by students are typically stronger than standard drinks.

Hazing Prevention Education		The fall 2018 poster focuses on the importance of understanding and recognizing types of hazing. Research shows that 55% of students experience hazing and a mere 5% claim those experiences as hazing. This poster and conversation starter serve as a reminder that it is important to treat sisters with respect and if activities or experiences can take away from a persons dignity or safety, those behaviors should be identified and prevented.  Hazing Pevention Education Conversation Starter

This poster and conversation guide reviews the importance of evaluating possible outcomes of posts and comments made in very public ways, like on social media.  Social Media Responsibilitiy Conversation Starter
