The fun and games set up on one college campus came with a twist: lessons on preventing gambling addiction.
TOWSON, Md. —
That’s where a new program called, “Tigers Play Responsibly” comes in. It was made possible by a $40,000 dollar grant from the National Council on Problem Gambling, which believes this program could become a model for other schools in how to prevent gambling addiction on campus. They say the legalization of online sports gambling makes it easier for college students to access it.
“Maybe set a timer on your phone if you're gambling and give yourself a time limit and also a money limit,” Gault advised. “I think the accessibility of that brings a different challenge, but also like an opportunity to educate students in a different way.”
