The Drug-Free Schools and Campuses Act requires institutions of higher
education to adopt and implement a program to prevent the unlawful
possession, use, or distribution of illicit drugs and alcohol by
students and employees. In compliance with this federal regulation,
Rutgers has various policies and programs in place. The University Code
of Student Conduct, available at polcomp.rutgers.edu/judaff/ucsc.shtml
or through the Office of Student Judicial Affairs (732-932-9414),
provides information regarding prohibited conduct and sanctions related
to drug and alcohol possession, use, and distribution. The university
also has adopted a Policy on the Use of Alcoholic Beverages that can be
accessed online at rci.rutgers.edu/~polcomp/alcohol.shtml.
In addition, Rutgers offers extensive educational resources and
programming related to alcohol and other drugs through University
Health Services. Students can access educational materials and program
information online at health.rutgers.edu/healthinfo/alcohol.htm.
More comprehensive information regarding the Drug-Free Schools and
Campuses Act is set forth in the Student Health Insurance Manual,
located online at health.rutgers.edu/insurance/New Brunswick-Piscataway 05-06.pdf, and is provided to all new students.
