CDC: PRESCRIPTION DRUG ABUSE REACHING 'EPIDEMIC' LEVELS
The Center for Disease Control (CDC) says that prescription drug abuse is an "epidemic" in America, according to the Washington Post. Addiction to Rx pills such as painkillers is overtaking "street drugs" such as heroin and cocaine.
UMES has a major problem with these drugs on campus. SU also has the problem but nothing compares with UMES. This school has become the local provider for prescription meds.
Since I doubt the school has a drug manufacturing plant, if what you say is true, it seems to me that it is the local community that is the provider. If you know so much about the topic, you should be talking with local law enforcement, not attempting to malign an entire university.
