Subject: Program Success!
Good morning,

Just wanted to relay that last night's SMASHED program was a great success. I counted about 150 students and many took advantage of the class vouchers. Faculty definitely supported the program as a co-curricular activity.

The speaker really reinforced many of the messages we send around alcohol use, and had some great statistics and suggestions for students. Being in her late 20's I thought she related to them well.

Kudos to Jeff and the SAGE group. They did a wonderful job organizing and carrying out the event. Very well done.
