We recently spoke with Dianne and Chris Williams, the parents of McCrae Williams, a freshman lacrosse player who died as a result of a hazing-related alcohol injury at Lafayette College eight months ago. Like Gordie, McCrae did not receive the medical attention he needed in time to save his life - he was not taken to a hospital for 22 hours. Instead, McCrae's friends put a backpack on him in a misguided effort to keep him from rolling over onto his back. The practice of "backpacking" drunk students is well-intentioned, but highly dangerous, as drunk people can roll over on their stomachs and be unable to roll back over because of the backpack, increasing the risk of asphyxiation. McCrae's parents created a survey to learn more about the prevalence of backpacking, student knowledge of state and campus medical amnesty policies, and barriers to calling 911 in an alcohol emergency. Please forward the survey link below to high school and college students as well as any recent graduates you know, and urge students to take the survey and pass it on to their friends.
