College Prowler Take
There are plenty of students who do drugs at GW—most commonly, students smoke pot, drink alcohol, and smoke cigarettes. A lot of students talk about, sell, and smoke pot on a regular basis. But for students who are not interested in drugs, there is rarely any pressure to partake. People mostly associate with others who share their views on drugs. Alcohol is the most popular drug on campus. GW students love drinking—many taking it to excess. Study drugs, such as Adderall and Ritalin, are very popular on campus. Students pop these prescription pills before a long night at the library to stay up late writing a paper or cramming for an exam. There are some harder drugs on campus, such as cocaine and ecstasy, but everyone knows which social circles use those harder drugs, and staying away from them is easy. Harder drugs are definitely not as visible as alcohol, pot, and study drugs.

I do not notice that many people doing drugs, although pot is probably more common than I even realize. It is not noticeable unless you are looking for it.

I don't think drugs are a noticeable part of campus life. Underage drinking is the illegal activity that most people partake in here.

A majority of students drink, but it really isn't a big deal if you don't. Since we live in a city, students will drink on campus, at off-campus parties, and at clubs. There isn't a huge drug scene at GW, although there are definitely a lot of students who engage in recreational drug use. There are a lot of wealthy students here, so the drugs of choice are marijuana and coke.

I think you will find what you are looking for. If you just want to drink, you will find those friends. If you want to smoke, you can find friends that do, too. Anything more? There are people into that. You can avoid what you want to, as well as find what you are looking for. |

Drugs are there if you want them, but they’re not the center of social life, per se. A lot of kids smoke weed and some particular groups do use coke. Ecstasy is not very popular anymore, and harder stuff is around but not big. |
