See, everyone's experience is different, but my experience was that drugs were around for those who were curious, but no one was pressuring you to do them.  I had plenty of friends who chose to live in the sub-free dorm and they didn't have any issues socially.  If you are the kind of person who is freaked out by other people experimenting with tripping acid and having a weird trip and you don't want to be around it at all ever, then ok.  But it's kind of a live and let live culture as far as drugs and alcohol go at Reed, and if it's not your thing, it's not like you won't be able to find people you relate to.

Freshman year was very different from the rest of the years because the sensational stories about how there is such a HUGE drug culture tends to draw a small number of people who are not serious about school and think that college is a place to party it up and decide to be really visible on campus.  Those people flunk out by the end of freshman year.[/quote]
