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://www.rci.rutgers.edu/~judaff/code.htm,
or through the Assistant Director 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 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, and is provided to all new students.
