� The Arrive Alive in 2005 safety campaign was a huge success, according
to Peer Educators.��
Some 2,200 JSU
students signed pledge cards in connection with the following five
points:
- Don�t
Drink and Drive
- Buckle
Up
- Drive
Defensively
- Check
Your Emotional Health
- Reach
Out to Others
Approximately
50 posters were placed around campus.�
Six large banners were placed near entrances of several
campus buildings.� A campaign Web site was coordinated by Peer
Educator Amara Chekwa.� Other
Peer Educators set up and manned a table to get pledges and hand
out �Guardian Angel� cards, which are personal alcohol tests.��The cards measure blood alcohol levels instantly.
Apparently,
no JSU student died on the road this past holiday break.�

2004-2005 Peer Educators who did the campaign work are:
