A new study has found that the increased use of marijuana is causing problems on college campuses.

The survey results were released by the MassINC Polling Group this week on Tuesday and found that college administrators are seeing problems that are associated with the increased use of the drug.

The survey, which was sponsored by the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation and the Mary Christie Foundation and distributed with the help of the National Association of System Heads and conducted by the MassINC Polling Group, found that problems include academic performance issues as well as mental health issues.

A staggering 79% of administrators believe that colleges “should implement policies and programs to effectively reduce marijuana use among college students.”

It also discovered that “there are wide gaps in opinion between different administrative roles on campus. Health, residence, and safety officials are much more aware of issues around marijuana than those in academic or student affairs administration.”

The survey had a total of 744 college administrators respond with 523 completing the survey. It was conducted from September 6th, to October 3rd.
