Choose Cardinals First program is a collaborative initiative that empowers participants to gain a better understanding of the challenges and consequences related to high-risk alcohol consumption while growing in their roles as student leaders who recognize their ability to influence and shift the campus climate.

This three year leadership program is a collaboration between the Office of the Dean of Students, the Office of Student Conduct and Ethical Development and the Office of Campus Activities focusing on decision-making, protective strategy development, and skills-based leadership.
