What is ACE?
ACE stands for Alcohol and Cannabis Education Workshop
This workshop is a one hour group experience for 10-15 students. In the workshop, students can expect to engage in conversations and activities about how alcohol or substance use is impacting various dimensions of their well-being so that they can make decisions that align with their values and goals.
Why participate in ACE?
Some students choose to participate to learn more about their own behavior and how it compares with that of other Charlotte students, especially if they want to learn more about safer alcohol or other drug use.
Other students may agree to participate when found in violation of UNC Charlottes Code of Conduct or House Rules. If you and the Office of Student Accountability and Conflict Resolution (SACR) or Housing and Residence Life agreed that you will attend ACE, remember that ACE is meant as a non-punitive, non-judgmental, and confidential space to help you learn.
Cost?
ACE is FREE for all Charlotte students!
