Drug and Alcohol Abuse Education
The Bethel College alcohol and drug abuse program extends far beyond minimum requirements for such programs. Since Bethel College does not permit the use of alcohol or drugs on or off campus, abuse problems tend to be hidden. For this reason the extensive program strives to reach five distinct outcomes:
- Training and information which may prevent some students, faculty and staff from abusing drugs and alcohol.
- Training for the campus community so that they will more readily identify current problems.
- An increase in the level of competency of intervention techniques in a manner that is caring and correct.
- Better referrals to appropriate agencies and follow up with needed support.
- A campus-based, user-friendly resource center housing specific, needed information.
The full description of the Comprehensive Drug and Alcohol Program is available upon request to the Dean of Students (574) 257-3530.

Graduation Rate Information
Bethel College tracks graduation rates for those first-time, full-time students who enter the college during the fall term of each year. The rates represent the percentage of such students who finish within a time equivalent to 150% of the standard length of their program (i.e. – 6 years for a 4 year program). Cohorts of entering groups have been formed each year since fall term of 1996. Descriptions of those groups by sex and racial/ethnic background are now available. Reports are available to prospective and enrolled students by contacting Carolyn Arthur.
