I guess things were different back in the seventies when most students smoked pot. It was illegal, but so pervasive that law enforcement and even the administration just let it go.
Virtually all of our brothers graduated and are now successful biologists, oceanographers, Lieutenant Colonels (or full Col.s), corporate jet pilots, engineers, private investigators, pharmaceutical manufacturers, cost estimators, physicians - you name it.
Marijuana is not addictive and I personally don't care for it but looking back, it seems the most messed-up brothers now are the ones who didn't get stoned then.
What does this mean? I don't know but it's far out, man.
Probably the biggest problem with pot today is the diametrically opposed social attitude as compared to the '70s. Intrinsically it's relaxing, while not nearly as habit forming or addictive as nicotine or alcohol.
