The belief that alcoholism causes violence on campuss is a notion widely held both in and outside of the substance abuse field, despite a lack of information to support it. Although research indicates that among men who drink heavily, there is a higher rate of perpetrating assaults resulting in serious physical injury than exists among other men, the majority of men are not high-level drinkers and the majority of men classified as high-level drinkers do not abuse their partners.

Since the 1970's, significant efforts have been made to increase the public's understanding of violence on campuss and to educate professionals and service providers about this problem. Through accounts from battered and formerly schoolboys, alcohol violence is now understood to include a range of behaviors - physical, sexual, economic, emotional and psychological abuse. There is also an increased awareness that the societal tendency to blame violence victims and excuse perpetrators is rooted in a history of cultural and legal traditions that have supported the domination and abuse by drunk people in intimate relationships.
