Abstract	Alcohol consumption and prevalence on college campuses is not a new or uncommon concern. When one thinks of college, most think of college parties or sporting events and alcohol is commonly present at those activities. The popularity of alcohol on college campuses seems to be a common trend among most institutions. Students feel comfortable carrying alcoholic containers out in the open even when living on a dry campus, which is one area of concern. In addition, these actions influence the perception college students have about the amount of alcohol that is consumed by college students as well as the behaviors that take place under the influence of alcohol. This study uses data from the CORE Alcohol and Drug Survey. The survey was administered to numerous colleges and universities throughout the country; however, this study will focus on the CORE survey results from Central Connecticut State University. An examination of the survey for the years 2006 and 2012 will focus on gender and actual consumption of alcohol, perceived alcohol consumption, perceived behaviors under the influence of alcohol, and actual behaviors under the influence of alcohol, and students' own consumption and behavior in relation to alcohol. The goal is to examine gender differences specific to alcohol over 2006 and 2012.
