Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

The drug scene at Syracuse University is more than likely no different than at most schools across the United States. If a random poll of students were taken, a few would be serious drug users, some would be occasional users, and many would not use drugs at all. Marijuana is clearly the drug of choice for students, excluding alcohol, and it can be easily found on campus. Even if an individual is not an avid user, more than likely, he or she knows someone who sells weed.

At almost every party a student will attend, some party-goers will be smoking pot. It will be tough for a student to avoid being around marijuana for all four years at SU, but if the person truly doesn’t want to use, it will be easy to find ways to evade it. The Options program in the Health Center is excellent for students who feel they have a problem and would like a private counselor to help them. The staff is knowledgeable and caring.

Drinking and Marijuana

It's fairly easy at Syracuse to find a party and have unlimited drinks as an undergraduate student. It's no big secret and there isn't a lot of enforcement to stop it either. Another big problem is marijuana which many student use as well. It's also not hard to get and students who use frequently are rarely caught or punished.

Easy Access

It is readily available if you want it , but if you don't look for it, it won't bother you. People do not walk around trying to sell drugs on the streets.

The "drug" of choice is alcohol, but everyone drinks here. Weed isn't really considered a drug either. Cops don't really crack down on it, everyone was blazing on their lawns on 420. Adderall is pretty popular too, especially for those mondays after a fuzzy weekend. Xanax is seen a lot on this campus too. A lot of people roll for concerts.

Drug Safety

Drugs are there but avoidable. You can see people doing them but do not have to associate yourself with them. RA's are strict about weed.
