Because you got high...


There was a song a few years ago that was quite a hit. It went something like this. “I was gonna go to class before I got high. I coulda cheated and I coulda passed but I got high. Now I am taking it next semester and I know why. Because I got high, because I got high, because I got high…”

I am quite certain that you do not want this to be the story of your college career. Let’s forget for a second the amount of brain cells that you kill when you toke up. Possession of marijuana is a violation of the Code of Conduct for students at Penn State. If you are found using or possessing the drug, you place your future here in jeopardy. Consequences range from disciplinary probation for minor offenses to expulsion for major ones. And that’s just at the University level. You’ll also be facing charges in the court, and could be looking at more serious consequences down the line.

In addition, please note that the fastest way to get you expelled from school is to be caught selling or dealing drugs of any kind on campus. We don’t ask you to make smart decisions to make our lives easier – we’re looking out for you.

Until next time… For the Glory, Know the Code.
