April marked Pitts bi-annual Every 15 Minutes program. It included seniors from the class of 2026. In the program, pitt students were thrown into a senecio of a car crash that was a result of drunk driving. It included two cars, one filled with people who had been “drinking” and the other where everyone was sober on their way back from an award ceremony. The scenario ended with 4 people shown to be severely injured, and one perished. The whole experience was one all the students were very attentive towards.
A student in particular, Nayelli, was asked why she participated. She stated that it was imported to be aware of drunk drivers and to not be one driving while under the influence. The program opened her eyes to how many people are truly affected by drinking and driving. Many others involved in the program and process also stated how drinking and driving can lead to tragedy in the split of a second. How one persons decision can lead to a domino of effects.
