when I was there in 85-87, there were two guys, one a staff member, one a
student who were dealing pot out of their rooms - all the people who smoked
dope were aware of them - a bunch of the ESL (english as a second language
people were their patrons) I found out through a friend who was buying from
them. After the city cops got suspicious, the staff guy quit MIU, went to live
in town and started dealing in town instead of on campus.
One of the staff women I knew who had a son in MSAE told me that sometime
before I arrived, an entire class of MSAE had been suspended for a time cause
all of them had gotten busted - the university of course kept it quiet. Her son
and a bunch of his classmates, all MSAE students, definitely were having pot
parties - his mom caught him at one.
You just weren't hanging out with the cool people
There was no "drug
problem" in the early to mid 80's at MIU. There was
the occasional beer that was imbibed and certainly plenty of
sex but most of it performed sober.

Last month the Gov of Vermont
spent his WHOLE state-of-the-state speech presentation on
the drug (heroin) problem. Thank you for not selling
drugs and booze to our children,-Buck
"Mr. Hoffman gave
himself what's called a "Hot Shot". If he
knew
the stength of the heroin that he was injecting himself
then
i think he may have commited suicide and if he didn't
he
was just unlucky. He died before he could get the needle
out
of his arm which leads me to believe it was probably pure
heroin ( meaning it was uncut)." -from NPR
