Drug and Alcohol Policies
In 1989, Congress amended Title XII of the Higher Education Act of 1965. This amendment,
the “Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act of 1989,” requires that every educational
institution, as a condition of receiving funds or any other form of financial assistance
under any federal program, certify its adoption and implement programs designed to
prevent the unlawful possession, use, or distribution of illicit drugs and alcohol
by students and employees. MCC, in accordance with legal mandates and its commitment
to establishing and maintaining a supportive learning and working environment, has
established the following policies for students and employees.
As required by the Drug Free Schools and Communities Act and the Clery Act, this information
is provided to all enrolled students and current employees of Middlesex Community
College.
