Whether you are staying on campus, working, visiting family and friends, or traveling the world it's important to be safe. Spring break is a time to let loose, but we encourage you to do so responsibly. Do not drive long distances if you are sleep deprived, or distracted. This could lead to a potential accident since your brain is probably more focused on the fun times ahead. Remember not to speed while driving to avoid tickets. Police officers know when spring break is, and they are looking for college kids speeding off to their vacation spot. If you are going to a warm, sunny destination pack plenty of sunscreen. It is important to protect your skin from the harmful UV rays of the sun, especially since we are not used to exposing skin during the long Logan winter months. It is easy to forget, but drink plenty of water during the day to avoid dehydration. If you consume alcohol do so responsibly, and only if your 21 or over. Underage drinkers risk harmful consequences to their health, and getting in trouble with the law. It is important to always be fully aware of your surroundings, especially if you are traveling to a location you are unfamiliar with. Use the buddy system when exploring. Do not let anyone in your group leave with a stranger, or be pressured into uncomfortable situations. Also, bring plenty of protection if you are planning on being sexually active during break.
These simple safety tips will ensure you have a fun, and stress free break! See ya after spring break Aggies!
