Drugs and alcohol are dangerous substances that can lead to serious physical problems with all major organs. Even a single abuse of these substances can endanger lives and cause irreparable harm to self and others.
Students who may have been or are using drugs and desire counseling may request counseling on campus or a referral to outside agencies. If a student enters into a counseling relationship, it will be regarded as privileged information and be treated in a confidential manner.
A list of drug and alcohol counseling treatment options is available to students through the SXU Counseling Center or by calling the Illinois Department of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse at 312-917-3840.
The above information is provided in cooperation with the United States Government's Drug Free Schools and Workplace Act (1989).

Suspected drug activity can also be reported anonymously to the Cook County State's Attorney's Narcotics Nuisance Abatement Hotline at 773-869-DOPE.
