Last Occurrence: Wednesday, March 27, 2013 11:30am - 1:00pm

Empirical evidence is consistent with rational forward-looking agents engaging in drinking and driving.

Frank Sloan, Ph.D., Duke University, will speak during the Campbell Pharmaceutical Seminar Series on the topic Is Drinking and Driving a Rational Decision? Attendance is free for the Rutgers University community and the general public. Lunch will be served.
