College Prowler Take

Students at MSU typically prefer to avoid the mushrooms and have some Bacardi instead. Those that do choose to run the risk of testing positive on a drug test will often light a joint rather than do any of the more dangerous drugs, such as acid or crack. Mushrooms are probably the second most popular drug of choice on campus, but a relatively low number of students have even tried such hallucinogens.

Alcohol is a much more serious problem than drug abuse, and rumor has it that over half the drivers in Montana after dark have been drinking. Thankfully, MSU provides the Cat Cab, a cheap way for students to get home from parties safely. Drugs are not a prominent part of campus life at MSU, and those who do choose to indulge in their illegal curiosities usually choose to do so off campus at a party or a friend’s house.

In all the parties I’ve been to, only once have I been asked to try anything other than pot. Drugs are just not something that people like much around here.

Pot is common here, just like it is at nearly every other college. Alcohol is the biggest problem (if drugs are considered a problem), and I think I’ve met a total of two people who have yet to drink at a party.

Bozeman has the school full of alcoholics, Missoula has the school full of hippie potheads. Take your pick.

It seems like there are quite a few drugs available in Bozeman, but they are really easy to avoid if you want to.

Caffeine is my personal drug of choice, but I have seen evidence of other, slightly more serious types of drugs at parties. I recommend just sticking to caffeine, though.
