Judicial Referrals

A student may be referred to WesWELL by the Student Judicial Board (SJB) or other judicial officer on campus; most frequently, these are for alcohol or other drug violations. This page describes what a student may expect for different types of referrals. Students who do not complete their assigned sanctions in a timely manner will be referred back to the SJB or judicial officer for further disciplinary action.

Individual Meetings | CHOICES Class | Community Service Hours

Individual Meetings

A student referred to WesWELL for an individual meeting will be required to set up an appointment with Lisa Currie, Director of Health Education. This is most quickly accomplished by calling Health Services at 860.685.2470 during their regular office hours. Meetings will run approximately 30 minutes and are held in Lisa's office in Davison Health Center, Room 202.

If this meeting is in regards to an alcohol violation, the student should complete the online e-CHUG alcohol assessment and bring a printout of their results to their individual meeting. This provides the student with feedback on their behaviors and attitudes and provides a strong starting point for conversation.

To schedule an individual meeting with Lisa Currie, contact Health Services at 860.685.2470.

CHOICES Class

The CHOICES Class is a research-based prevention program which can assist college students in making safer choices regarding alcohol consumption. Conducted in a peer-to-peer group setting, CHOICES helps students appreciate the risks associated with alcohol use and equip them with effective strategies for reducing the risk and harm associated with high-risk drinking in the college environment.

Students assigned to participate in the CHOICES class will be required to attend two sessions, held approximately two weeks apart, They will also be required to complete all assignments. These classes are facilitated by either Joyce Walter, Director of Health Services or Lisa Currie, Director of Health Education and are held in the Davison Health Center's Solarium.

If you have scheduling questions or other concerns about this class, contact Joyce Walter at 860.685.2656.

University Service Hours

The Student Judicial Board has the option of assigning students university service hours as a sanction for violations of the Code of Non-Academic Conduct. They may choose to assign a student to complete their hours with WesWELL, typically for an alcohol violation. This may range from 5 to 20 hours or more, depending on the seriousness of the violation and other sanctions assigned.

The Director of Health Education will work with the student to develop a project that can be completed during their assigned hours and which will somehow benefit the student and the office's health education outreach. Past projects have included web resource research, development of brochures or bulletin board materials, research projects, fliering on campus, and completing clerical tasks or running errands.

If you have been assigned university service hours, call Lisa Currie at 860.685.2466 to schedule an initial meeting.
