Drug and alcohol abuse

Rises On College Campuses

Enjoyed this article by Sarah Pastor as this problem arises on campuses everywhere, not just Cabrini. This is definately not a “social activity,” but more of an epidemic as the article reveals.

I don’t think the students who drink or are on drugs realize how it affects the whole family. Parents are distressed, knowing that this is not what they expected when they pay the tuition. The students who binge drink and take drugs are tested by their peers!

I appreciate Sarah bringing this to our attention in her article, but the drugs and drinking will not go away. It’s here, and they have to find out the danger themselves..and sometimes that comes too late!

Campus parking becomes a problem

I have bought a parking permit this semester and I live on campus.

Personally I am outraged about the parking situation to the point of complete exhaustion. I hope someone is getting a kick out of watching us struggle to find a spot each day. I certainly am not.

What are the people who followed the rules supposed to do, when there are people parked in spots that don’t even have permits?!

Something must be done or there will (probably) be backlash - I can feel it.

Some of it has already been done with comments and complaints. It’s pretty well known that if you want a parking spot on campus you have to risk your own safety and the safety of your automobile. How do you feel Public Safety? Because I am not happy.
