Drug-Free Schools and Campuses Act

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 http://polcomp.rutgers.edu/judaff/ucsc.shtml, or through the Associate Director of Compliance, Student Policy and 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 http://www.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 http://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 http://health.rutgers.edu/insurance/New Brunswick-Piscataway 05-06.pdf, and is provided to all new students.
