Question

Pretend that you have been put on a committee at school or college that must decide whether to start random drug testing at school or college and that students must agree to this in order to remain enrolled. Using information from the text about marijuana, alcohol and opioids, briefly describe how each could affect a student's behavior on campus and also off campus when completing homework. Then write your own opinion as to why you think this could be a good idea, and then write why you think it could be a bad idea. When writing your thread and posts, your content is purely hypothetical and will not be construed as you being for or against such a policy.

A student is under the influence of mariuajana cannot relate to others in a school or college as he will be totally disconnected . Lack of awareness to what is happening around him.

Opoids are substances that produce morphine like effects.Side effects of opoids include itchiness, nausea, and respiratory problems.Opoids have a strong feeling of euphoria and overdose of opoids can lead to death.

Alchohol abuse is commonly found in school and college children.They start drinking for social recognition and often resort to it as they get older. Any one in the influence of alchohol will have lack of coordination and poor congnition..

None of the above should be present in school ,college students or encouraged to join any instituition. They should probably join a Rehabilitation centre to get out these substance abuses for their well being to prevent high level of addiction.
