What is the Dartmouth policy regarding use of alcohol and other drugs?
The section on Alcohol and Other Drugs in the most recent edition of the student handbook states that “the unlawful possession, use, or distribution of illicit drugs and alcohol by students on College property or as any part of a College-sponsored activity is strictly prohibited.” That being said, “the primary concern of the alcohol policy is the health and safety of members of the College community. As part of Dartmouth’s overall alcohol education efforts the alcohol policy aims to deepen student awareness of the problems that the abuse of alcohol can create, and to involve the College and the members of the College community in helping to alleviate these problems whenever possible.” To learn more about college policy and New Hampshire law regarding the use of alcohol and other drugs, please visit the student handbook at the following website: http://www.dartmouth.edu/~deancoll/documents/handbook/rules-regs/alc-drugs.
