Alcohol and drug habits replace study habits Hey, Mark, ya got a beer? Joan, ya wanna go out and party? This may sound like a typical television conversation, but often it is heard at schools, parties, hangouts, or any other conceivable place. Alcohol and drug abuse are very serious problems in our lifestyles today. The vic- tims come from various backgrounds of life. Whether rich or poor, black or White, the use of these stimulants and depressants is prevalent. A select group of Thornwood juniors were given an anonymous survey concerning both alcohol and drugs. The students were asked if they had ever sampled alco- hol, ever experimented with drugs, and if they thought drug use was common in school. N inety-six percent of the students surveyed admitted that they had had alco- holic beverages before, usually at parties. Of this nine- ty-six percent, eighty-two percent said they only drink sometimes and eighteen percent hardly drink at all. The second half of the survey was devoted to narcot- ics. Ninety-seven percent of the students surveyed felt drug use was rampant at school. Although so many ad- mitted that there is a drug problem, only seventy-five percent said that there should be punishment for these acts. Surprisingly only forty-five percent of the stu- dents surveyed admitted to ever having experimented with drugs. Help is available for people who are faced with alco- hol or drug abuse problems. Various workshops which have both group and individual counseling have helped students in high schools around the nation. Programs such as Alcoholics Anonymous, Drug Abuse and Addic- tion Information, and the Alcoholism Institute for Re- covery found in many hospitals, have assisted people of all ages to stop destroying themselves with drugs and alcohol. Sue Sobocinsk M S Above: Alcoholism has become a serious problem with many high school students. Alcohol effects not only social lives but also school work, and can cause fatal results.
