College Prowler Take
Like on most campuses, alcohol consumption is everywhere at Lawrence. However, with the steady presence of Bacchus, a student organization dedicated to promoting safe drinking, there is also a large group of students that chooses not to drink. Bacchus provides nonalcoholic alternatives on weekends, so there is no pressure to drink in order to have fun. including alcohol in organization hazing or initiations is highly forbidden. Drinking is kept to responsible levels, and problems that arise from people drinking excessively are almost
unheard of.
In terms of other drugs, it is possible for a student to go to Lawrence for all four years and not see a single illegal drug. The drug scene is not very large to begin with, and generally those that aren’t a part of it aren’t aware of it. Marijuana is widespread and available, but it’s not a threatening force to non-smokers. Harder drugs are on campus, but most students remain completely oblivious to them. Students Speak Out

Bacchus is a campus organization to help inform students about the effects drugs can have and other ways to have fun. |

There is little to no pressure to do drugs or drink alcohol. People respect others’ choices, and if you don’t feel comfortable in a situation, people usually respect that and try to make sure that you are comfortable, or you can leave without being questioned. |

As long as you drink responsibly, you are in the clear. Pot and other substances can be found on campus, and students caught using them are usually reprimanded immediately and harshly if an RLA or RHD finds out. I’d say that, for the most part, people use recreational drugs to enhance their experiences of having fun . There are times when people abuse drugs and do it for the wrong reasons, but that can happen anywhere. |
