College Prowler Take
The main drug in use on campus is marijuana. Stimulants are also fairly common during exams. RPI is not much different from most campuses in this respect. Most students prefer alcohol, with marijuana coming in a distant second. Overall, the campus has very few problems; even the number of reported incidents is low, considering the size of the campus. Basically, any drug scene at RPI is limited to those who want to be in it. There is no pressure to do anything if you don’t want to, and those groups that choose to use drugs mainly stick to themselves. It’s important to remember that there are drugs out there. If you don’t want them, however, you could probably go through four years and never see a thing. Students Speak Out

Not too bad; the police look the other way about drinking, and it has to be pretty bad for them to do something about drugs. |

It happens, but it doesn’t seem to be very big. Alcohol is the drug of choice for most RPI students. |

It’s there, but it’s not nearly as bad as other campuses. Most of it occurs off campus. |

I’ve never heard any complaints about how strict the campus police are with drugs and drinking. I don’t think I’m in with a crowd that does drugs, so I haven’t even heard about people doing any drugs at RPI besides some weed. As for drinking, it seems like Public Safety won’t bother anyone unless there are complaints from neighbors. Also, if you are a freshman and drinking or doing drugs in your dorm, you should just make sure your door is closed and you don’t get your neighbors upset, because the RAs can sometimes make trouble for people. |
