St. Patrick's Day Weekend

St. Patrick's Day and the start of spring is typically a time of celebration and fun for LUC students. However, if your celebration involves alcohol or other forms of substance use, there is an increased chance of accidents, legal issues, alcohol poisoning, and other negative consequences. There is also an added risk of contracting COVID-19 in drinking situations, as alcohol use impairs judgment and interferes with social distancing. 

If you choose to attend Chicago's annual parade or other celebrations, make sure that you are making choices that keep yourself and others safe. There are plenty of ways to celebrate without alcohol, but if you choose to drink, please pace yourself, stick to your limit, and stay with the same group of friends. 

Read the FAQs below for information on alcohol safety, ways to enjoy the holiday without alcohol, and information on COVID-19 safety and St. Patrick's Day. Don't rely on luck this St. Patrick's Day! Plan ahead and celebrate responsibly. Check back soon for a list of fun Loyola sponsored events for students during St. Patrick's Day weekend.
