If someone you're with is experiencing worrysome effects from drugs or alcohol, it could be a medical emergency. Don't hesitate to call for help!

Ithaca College’s Medical Amnesty Policy (IC MAP) encourages students to seek medical assistance related to alcohol and/or drug overdose, since these conditions can be fatal. With IC MAP, students can seek assistance for their friends or themselves if a medical emergency arises involving the use of alcohol and drugs without worrying about college judicial consequences.

Make the Call If Someone Has Any of These Symptoms:

  • Confusion
  • Excessive Vomiting
  • An injury
  • Difficulty standing up
  • Seizure
  • Slow or irregular breathing
  • Blue-tinged or pale skin
  • Low body temperature (hypothermia)
  • Unconsciousness ("passing out"), and can't be roused

Public Safety Emergency Phone: 607-274-3333

Medical amnesty is granted by the Office of Judicial Affairs after a review of the case. For more information on the details of the IC MAP, please visit: Center for Health Promotion.
