Alcohol and Substance Abuse Policies

The University of Maine views alcohol and substance abuse as a serious problem. In compliance with the Drug Free Workplace Act, the University publishes and distributes annually a booklet which informs all students and employees of UMaine's substance abuse policy, sanctions for violation of the policy, and state and federal alcohol and drug laws, offenses and sanctions. The use of illegal substances and under-age drinking at the University of Maine is prohibited. The violation of State drinking laws and the use, sale or possession of illegal drugs are strictly enforced in accordance with Federal and State Law.

The University of Maine strongly encourages all members of our community to take an active role in reporting crime and any security or safety problem you become aware of immediately. Remember, together we can do a terrific job of keeping us all safe. Let's do it NOW!
