Other Drugs

The sale, possession, or distribution of any drug, including the illegal possession, sale and or distribution of prescribed medications, is a criminal offense. In addition to legal ramifications, Bentley regards the illegal use of drugs as unacceptable because of the potential negative effect upon the individual student and other community members.

Illegal use, possession or supply of drugs or drug paraphernalia will result in disciplinary action by the college and/or criminal prosecution. Sanctions may include suspension or expulsion from college-owned housing, suspension or expulsion from Bentley, parental notification and/or fines ranging up to $1,000. Penalties are levied on a per-person basis.
