Drug-Free Campus

The College seeks to foster a positive environment by maintaining a drug and alcohol-free campus by implementing policies in compliance with local, state, and federal law:*

  • The College provides drug-free awareness and prevention literature and programs for students through the Student Services offices and for employees through the Human Resources office.

  • The possession, use and/or distribution of any controlled substance and the unauthorized and/or illegal use of alcohol are prohibited within the confines of the properties owned or leased by Monroe and at all activities sponsored by the College.
  • The sale and/or possession of any controlled substance, including marijuana, is illegal under New York State Law.
  • Sanctions or required rehabilitation of an employee or student convicted of workplace or campus-based drug abuse will be imposed. Violators will be subject to disciplinary action (which may include expulsion or termination of employment) and/or referral to outside authorities.
