Narcotics & Drugs Other Than Alcohol
2007-2008
The illegal possession, use, abuse, distribution, or manufacture of
narcotics, dangerous drugs, or hallucinogens by a member of the College
community is considered a serious threat to the health and personal
welfare of individuals and a violation of expected behavior.
The
academic community can in no way be considered a sanctuary from civil
prosecution; individuals are reminded of their civil responsibility. Thus,
the College will not obstruct civil authorities. At the same time, as an
educational institution, the College recognizes the appropriateness of
handling certain cases of drug abuse individually and from an educational
and/or counseling point of view.
Individuals are urged to reflect upon the threat to themselves, to review
their attitudes and actions regarding drug use and abuse, and seek
information and counseling. The Office of Student Affairs is prepared to
deal confidentially with personal problems involving drug abuse. In
addition, physicians enjoy by law privileged communication and can be of
assistance. Information about the legal implications, the effects of
various agents, and counseling can be obtained through the Office of
Students Affairs or by calling x2113 for an appointment with the
Counseling Center.
