In the same year, 22.9 percent of TCU students said they have used marijuana at least once within the past year. Again, the TCU average was below the national average of 32.4 percent. Katovich said that even if marijuana is legalized some people will abuse the drug. Students are more likely to fall into the category of those who may use the drugs for inappropriate purposes, but Katovich said that problem will resolve itself as problems of alcohol do. But most of those will only use the drugs in moderation.
Students smoke marijuana like they drink alcohol.
It is simply a time-out experience for them.
