Alcohol and college students. Sometimes the two make for a deadly combination. Holy Cross put on a forum to fight against alcohol abuse in teens and young kids.

Leaders at the conference say this is not just a local issue, but one all across the country and needs to be taken seriously.

Keynote speaker Brandon Busteed kicked off the program. He leads programs such this one all across the country. He urged colleges in attendance to adapt preventative rather than reactive approaches to their campus abuses.
