Alcohol/Drug Policy Letter

Sinclair’s Drug and Alcohol Abuse Prevention Policy

 

Dear Student:

 

 

Sinclair Community College believes that the illegal use of alcohol and other drugs presents a serious health and safety hazard to the college community and that it interferes with educational and career success.  The college fully supports the Drug Free School and Communities Act of 1989 to prohibit the possession, consumption and distribution of drugs and alcohol on college property, during classes and at activities officially sponsored by the college.  Students may not consume alcoholic beverages on property, during classes, or in connection with activities officially sponsored by the college.

 

Sinclair Community College supports all federal, state and local ordinances pertaining to alcohol and drugs and will fully cooperate with law enforcement authorities to protect the students, staff and faculty of the college from possession, purchase, sale, and manufacture of controlled substances and alcohol.  The college will refer offenders to the proper civil authorities.  Regardless of whether legal action is pursued by the college or other agencies, disciplinary action will be taken by the college for violations of college policy or college conduct regulations.  All students should be familiar with Sinclair’s policy prohibiting the unauthorized or illegal use of alcohol and/or other drugs as described in Sinclair’s Student Judicial Affairs Code of Conduct Handbook 2009-10 (http://www.sinclair.edu/stservices/sact/index.cfm). You will find further information and resources on the Counseling Services Department website, (http://www.sinclair.edu/support/counseling)

 

Personally,

Director, Counseling Services
