This policy reflects a college-wide commitment
to an environment free of drug and alcohol abuse through (1) education and counseling
programs, and (2) the prohibition of illegal or imprudent use of drugs or alcohol.
The college prohibits the unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensing, possession,
and use of controlled substances. Controlled substances include, but are not limited
to, narcotics, barbiturates, amphetamines, cocaine, marijuana, anabolic steroids,
and misused prescription or legal drugs or alcohol. As used in this policy, the words “substance” and “controlled
substance” include alcoholic beverages. Those who use controlled substances
or illicitly use or abuse legal substances, including but not limited to alcohol,
are in violation of the law and of this Smith College policy. Compliance with this
policy is a condition of employment and/or enrollment at the college. All members
of the Smith College community are expected to be familiar with and abide by the
principles and details of this policy.
When the conduct of a member of the college community
on college property or during a college activity, wherever it may occur, is in
violation of this policy, the college will take appropriate action, up to and including
expulsion, termination of employment, and referral for prosecution. Please also
see Alcohol and Drug Problems in Section 211.
When appropriate, the Office of Human Resources
may make referrals to the Employee Assistance Program, or employees may wish to
consult the EAP independently. This policy supplements, and does not replace, other
regulations, policies, standards, and expectations regarding the conduct of college
students and employees. Nothing in this policy shall be construed to remove or
otherwise affect those protections normally afforded to all employees and students.
Please also see the Code
of Conduct - Drug-Free Workplace for the policy on Substance Abuse and Substance
Use.
