Problems
Alcohol is the most populous and dangerous drug on college campuses by far. It is the most easily and legally accessible to get. Because alcohol use is widespread, many students end up drinking frequently. According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, nearly half of students who drink are binge drinkers. Excessive drinking is not only a health concern, but lead to tragedies such as assault, injury, arrest, and death.
On an average day, millions of college students consume alcohol and more than 20 percent of them meet the criteria for AUD or Alcohol Use Disorder. Although there are no definite numbers on college campuses, new statistics show that an alarming number of young people ages 18-25 are getting slipped drugs in their drinks resulting in rape, sexual assaults, and death.
The following are 3 of the most common predator drugs uses on college campuses to spike open beverages:
- Rohypnol- a potent tranquilizer that causes amnesia and loss of muscle control
- Gamma Hydroxy Butyrate or GHB- a colorless odorless liquid depressant that dissolves easily in liquids, known as the "club drug" or "date rape drug" , usually put in alcoholic beverages
- Ketamine or Special K- a powerful anesthetic available in liquid, powder, and pill form; causes hallucinations, amnesia, and renowned as the most powerful date rape drug and most predator drug used on college campus.
