Students for Sensible Drug Policy

Revision as of 18:22, August 24, 2010 by Sll1 (talk | contribs)

Students for Sensible Drug Policy is an international grassroots network of students who are concerned about the impact drug abuse has on our communities, but who also know that the War on Drugs is failing our generation and our society.

SSDP mobilizes and empowers young people to participate in the political process, pushing for sensible policies to achieve a safer and more just future, while fighting back against counterproductive Drug War policies, particularly those that directly harm students and youth.

The Williams chapter was revived in the Fall of 2009 and has been active in screening documentaries like The Union: The Business Behind Getting High and Reefer Madness; holding roundtable discussions about national drug policy; hosting live music such as the sick Rubblebucket concert; and just being a generally chill presence on campus.

Rumor has it the group meets once a month at The Forge. They have also been known to throw insane pizza parties.
