It can be hard for students struggling with addiction or working on recovery to be sober in college, especially between tailgating, parties and turning 21. According to a 2017 report by the National Institute on Drug Abuse, one in five college students reported extreme binge drinking or having 15 or more alcoholic drinks in a row in the two weeks prior to the survey. By their late 20s, 64 percent of young adults have tried an illicit drug and 37 percent have tried an illicit drug other than marijuana. It can be especially hard to be sober at IU.
