Student Handbook
B. Student Program to Prevent Illicit Use of Drugs
andAbuseofAlcohol
1.
Introduction and Purpose
The recent adoption by Congress of the Drug-Free Schools
and Communities Act amendments of 1989 (Public Law
101-226) requires federal contractors and grantees to certify
that they will provide a drug-free school. As a recipient of
federal grants, the District must adopt a program toward
accomplishing this goal. While federal legislation has been
the impetus for creation of the program, the administration
and Governing Board recognize that substance abuse is a
problem of national proportions that also affect students at
Maricopa Community Colleges. Based upon that concern,
it is intended that this program on prevention of alcohol and
drug abuse on college campuses will go beyond the strict
dictates of the law and will serve as a comprehensive
educational and resource tool.
