BASICS
BASICS are confidential and non-judgmental meetings with a SHS staff member. Students can talk about their alcohol or other drug use, receive personalized feedback, and discuss strategies to help them navigate substances in a safer way.
You may be required to attend two BASICS meetings if you have had a substance-related experience at BU that resulted in a hospital transport or administrator interaction. If you are required to attend these appointments, you will receive a University sanction or judicial letter outlining this requirement.
