I hope you're being sarcastic. The nature of the drugs, plus that he took them in the same night, suggest compulsive behavior...there was no need for him to take all those drugs to get high. If it was his first time taking them, he probably would've tried them one at a time so he could experience the high each of them gave him. But to take a drug they give cancer patients for pain, plus cocaine, plus another narcotic, then drink...I'm guessing this was not the first time he mixed. When you consider that all of those drugs are HIGHLY addictive, it's not very hard to conclude he had a problem. He was probably so numb he felt nothing most of the time, which is why he probably didn't think anything of combining them.
Money is no excuse for abusing drugs. I grew up with kids from loaded families, and went to college with rich kids, and narcotics were not used as casually as some threads on GC make it seem. Alcohol and pot, then x, were popular, but never cocaine or other hard narcotics. And if it's that popular in the greek system at SMU, well, I'm glad I didn't go to SMU then. I would not want to be surrounded by a bunch of cokeheads and can't believe people consider it no big deal.
