Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

When asked, the average student at Wayne State University doesn’t know anything about a drug scene. The closest thing to a “drug scene” here is cigarettes and alcohol. Yes, undoubtedly, someone will have a joint stashed away, but there is not major selling or the use of illegal drugs on campus. As for cigarettes, many people can be seen smoking, but the University is trying to become a smoke-free environment altogether. There is some alcohol on campus in the dorms, just like any other campus, but it is not a lot. WSU's drug scene is pretty much nonexistent because of hefty fines, and the campus police tend to strictly enforce the laws.

Off campus is another story. It is downtown Detroit; there are always a few people who know the drug scene very well. Yes, someone may ask if you are interested, but no one will be pushy about it. Wayne State University police officers also patrol the surrounding areas of campus, and they try to enforce the law even with non-students, faculty, or staff members.

Drinking and Peer Pressure

Drinking is very common, especially in frats or sororities because the the freshman or sophomore are always being pressured by the seniors to drink to look cool and because everyone else is doing it. Usually, there are many cops around who try to prevent such activity, but it is not greatly enforced.

Drugs at Wayne State

Personally I have never seen drugs being used on campus. This may be due to the strong policy enforcements on campus and the law enforcement as well.

Drugs Not a Big Issue

To me, I don't think drugs are a big issue at all. Actually, I haven't heard or seen anyone doing it. If they do, they don't do it around campus.
