Drugs

According to the Department of Health and Human Services, the number of college students who use drugs has gone down significantly in recent years. That’s not to say that drug use isn’t prevalent on college campuses. At some schools, the number of students who abuse drugs is greater than 50 percent.

You’ve heard it a thousand times before, but it’s definitely worth repeating: don’t use drugs. You’re just going to waste your college career, make a fool of yourself, and flush a lot of good opportunities down the toilet. College students who use drugs have more difficulty keeping their grades up than those who don’t. And you will literally be putting your life at risk every time you get high.
