Drug testing

Were you ever tested in your time at Saba? I'm not a regular user but let's just say I was in Amsterdam recently and I immersed myself in the local "culture." It should be completely out of my system by the time I start next semester but I was just curious to know.

yes, you are tested 'randomly' every semester.

What does 'randomly' mean? (they're biased against ....??)
And from what I hear it takes 30 days to clear out from the system??

no no, they are not biased or anything; i hope not.
but from observation, some people get tested more than others (its just my observation). i guess it depends on your history, and reputation as a student.
i heard that a 'group' of students in upper sem. were reported for recreational drugs, and the next day, the whole 'group' was asked to come to the office. it was very obvious...
from my obs. guys get tested more frequently than girls.

I have been tested 2 times this semester. I they say they just take a section of names on the roll and use those. But it seems to start wherever they want it to on the roll to include the people they want to test. The only thing in my urine is Rip-it. For those not here yet, you will get aquainted soon enough. It's all that keeps me awake in class.

you will be subject to testing the rest of your career. Local "culture" can get your license revoked. remember: you dont have a right to be a doc. you need to decide if you are willing to give up certain things.

i wasn't insinuating that i take part in recreational drugs or activities of that nature, but rather a breach of civil liberties and rights....
