"Accessing and Evaluating Alcohol, Tobacco, and Other Drug Resources on the Internet:
  A Primer for Faculty and Students" Monahan & Colthurst
 

ALCOHOL, TOBACCO, AND OTHER DRUG INFORMATION

The following is a list of ATOD-related Web sites that we believe are useful and interesting for ATOD faculty and students.  With more than 80 million sites now on the Web it is certainly not an exhaustive list but should help you cover a lot of ground in the classroom.  Feel free to use this web site in the future for your classes (we'll keep it online for the next year) or better yet, why not copy it to your own course web page?
