WPI Drug and Alcohol Policy

WPI Drug and Alcohol Policy

In accordance with the Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act Amendment of 1989, and the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, WPI prohibits the unlawful possession, use, and/or distribution of illicit drugs and alcohol on its property and/or as part of its activities. Student members of the WPI community who are in violation of this policy are subject to local, state, and federal law as well as disciplinary adjudication under the WPI code of conduct, the WPI Residence Hall Policy, and/or the WPI Greek system policy. The various sanctions outlined in Article I, Section D, of the constitution of the WPI campus judicial system are applicable to students found responsible for violating WPI's Drug and Alcohol Policy.
