Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Every weekend, rumors circulate of scores of students being caught drinking, but rumors about those caught with drugs are far more rare. While there is drug usage on campus, it is not forced on students, and it seems that while students readily use alcohol, many do not partake in other illegal substances. The most popular drug on campus is marijuana. There are whisperings of other drugs such as cocaine, but there is not a widespread use of them. It is refreshing that when students talk about cocaine, they usually seem horrified or disgusted, so it’s clearly a small group of students who use it and not the vast majority.

Some hard-core partying students will bump Adderall before drinking, but fortunately this trend has not caught on with the entire campus and remains the habit of a select few. Of course, the University does not condone such practices, but incidences of drinkers being busted are far more numerous than those of people smoking weed. However, when the public safety department receives a tip that someone is in possession of marijuana, it will search their room, resulting in unwelcome consequences for the offender.

Many Students Drink

Many students at susquehanna are known to drink. about 50% or more students who are juniors and Seniors drink 2 to 3 times a week. but the acceptance rate is still a 92% so it doesn't have too much of an impact on the students.

Much more students have access to alcohol than I suspected. However, it is a small school and students seems to get bored and want to drink. The good thing is I have not witnessed the use of any other drugs, but have heard stories of them existing off campus.

If You Want It, You Can Get It, If You Don't, You Won't.

Marijuana is really present on campus, at least in the freshman dorms, but its is not something that everyone participates in. It is definitely available if one is into that sort of thing. Alcohol is the most popular on campus. It can be found pretty easily, however most parties are off campus, but close. Girls usually get into parties free with free drinks, while guys usually pay about $5. Frats, the manor, and the warehouse are the biggest places to go on the weekend. Drinking in the dorm is pretty easy to get away with as long as one is not too obnoxious. People do get written up though, so its not something that is completely overlooked. No one is pressured to drink. Basically, at SU it is basically, If you are looking for parties, you can find them. If you aren't looking for them, you aren't going to see them.
