    OF PI KAPPA ALPHA VOLUME 82 NUMBER 1 SEPTEMBER 1971 DRUG ABUSE AND FR4TERNITY RESPONSIBILITY 2 SHIELD & DJ4MOND September. 1971 EDITORIAL Stan Love I happen to have a strong conviction that, prevalent though the use of marijuana and other drugs may be on our campuses, there are a great many fine young men who do not have any need of it. It is absolutely vital that when these individuals arrive on a cam­ pus there is a fraternity to meet their needs-one which can match their own high standards. I hope our fraternity will be such a group. The permissive fraternity which ignores drug abuse in the house will probably let down the barriers in every other way. Can this type of organization possibly be a strong force for good on the campus? What kind of leadership can come from students who . are psychologically dependent on a narcotic? I personally feel that any chapter of Pi Kappa Alpha which con­ dones the use of drugs and whose officials are neither able nor in­ clined to set and maintain the highest standards will be unable to provide the strong leadership needed in these difficult times, and is selling out the national fraternity and its own members. Some have suggested that drug usage is a dead issue and should not be a topic for this publication to consider. It might be in some places where it is accepted or the group has rejected its usage. However, it is difficult to consider it as a dead issue when more than a dozen articles appear in the daily paper each week on drug matters.
