Higher Educational students not averse to drugs
Having a joint during a night out, using a pill before a date, just to try it. According to studenten.net, the avarage student of higher education enjoys it a lot, even more than students of universities do. But is that true?
42 per cent of higher educational students uses drugs
According to the results of a research of www.studenten.net among 4796 students, higher educational students use more drugs than university students. Of the higher educational students 42 per cent uses drugs, whereas 16 per cent of the university students uses drugs.
Get loose
Most of the students say that they use drugs just to experiment, others say drugs help to get loose at parties. The majority chooses for softdrugs. The ones who don’t use any drugs (forty per cent) give as reason that drugs are unhealthy. A small part says that it is illegal. The price does not play a part.
'Is this true?'
HOP, the press bureau of higher education is a bit critical towards the research. Only 3340 of the 4796 respondents are students. The others have a job or don’t study in higher education or university. And to compare higher education with university education is a bit odd, when only 133 of the respondents studies in university.
The results are also a bit too freely interpreted according to HOP; of the higher educational students, 42 per cent would use drugs and more than half of the students has a joint now and then. That would be more than the total percentage of users.
