09/19/2024 - 11:00am - A veteran of New York and national politics, Luis Miranda embodies the relentless spirit of progress of American immigrants. In Relentless, he shares a fascinating narrative of his life and career-from his early days as a radically minded Puerto Rican activist to his decades of political advice and problem-solving. Miranda recounts the thrill of the ascendency of Hamilton, created by his son Lin-Manuel, and he details the suffering after the devastation of Puerto Rico by Hurricane Maria. Amid the triumphs and challenges, Miranda examines what his experience reveals about our ever-changing politics, demographics, and society.

The Peer Health Advisors’ mission across Lehigh’s campus is to implement health education including alcohol, sexual and mental health, bystander intervention, and other public health initiatives through various interactions with their peers campus-wide each semester. As First-Year students venture to campus, they are immersed in all that college has to offer; this includes social activities, both established through university programming and from their peers. Peer Health’s “Calling the Shots” presentation gauges student understanding of alcohol and alcohol-related effects. Recent surveys show 41.3% of Lehigh students categorized themselves as high-risk drinkers (they indicated that they've had five or more drinks in a sitting during the two weeks prior to being surveyed), 27.3% would be "moderate drinkers" (i.e., they didn't engage in high-risk drinking but also did not indicate that they do not drink at all). 31.5% would be "abstainers" or "non-drinkers" (i.e., they indicated that they do not drink alcohol). This presentation informs students who may choose to drink to use strategic adaptability to navigate situations where alcohol is involved. This also applies to students who may not choose to drink, as they are thrust into a changing environment and will need to adapt and communicate to others their personal choice, while also building upon their ability and skill as a bystander. Touching on critical consciousness, this guidance builds confidence toward honest and educated conversations with peers about safe-drinking habits and protective strategies. “Calling the Shots” provides the tools to identify health connections on campus tapping into their individual “why” of the overconsumption of alcohol by teaching the biological process of what alcohol does to the body, from one drink to many. Students are able to interactively engage in a “Know Your Pour” activity exploding creative curiosity to demonstrate their comprehension of the information presented and to deepen their understanding of a standard drink. Over the course of this 45-minute presentation, students will have the education piece with opportunities to engage throughout the entirety of the 5x10, are encouraged to ask questions, and will leave with increased knowledge to think critically in situations where alcohol is involved to help implement positive behavior, preventative, and protective strategies across their campus community.
