From the Dean’s Desk: smoke (a little ;) grass but don’t miss class #educationisonFLEEK

Double, double toil and trouble;

Campus bongs and kickbacks bubble.

Costumed students fill the streets,

Chasing highs and midnight meats.

Though the night is full of Js alight,

Keep your pen in sight,

With your buds by your side,

Enjoy a joyful ride,

Stay lit and keep your blunts bright.

Besties,

True confession: I looooove weed. But while I love weed, weed is NOT my friend. Without going too into details, let's just say my first – and only – weed experience involves a bazooka, bone marrow, and a 13-inch dildo. It’s a memory I try to forget, but if any psych majors want to help me overcome it, come by my office. #corememoryrepressed.

But just because it’s not my friend, doesn’t mean you won’t partake in the devil’s lettuce. 

In saying that, don’t allow some recreational marajuana keep you from your education! While you decide to light up your doobi, here’s some tips to keep you from ruining your life!

·      Look out for each other: stay with your group and make sure you get that text your friend got home safely (or just look at their locations, I know how you mini stalkers work)
·      Don’t take edibles (or candy) from strangers. Not everyone is looking out for your best interest, and that shit could have a weak THC.
·      Know your limits: if you choose to use, ZONT eat the whole brownie pan. You think that shit is weak, but next thing you know you’re married to your best friend and buying a 13-inch dildo to “experiment.”
·      Don’t leave home with more than one ounce at a time! Bean will have to use physical force and it makes her sad :( (jk, she’s blood thirsty)
·      Remember we live in a neighborhood and not everyone appreciates your smells. And that’s not even including the smell of weed!

·      Know who to call: You should always have the BUPD number in your phone (617-353-2121) or call 911 for off campus emergencies. BU has a Good Samaritan Policy, even if you or your friend is under 21, so don’t be afraid to ask for help.

Whether you choose to smoke, ingest, or hotbox, please make sure you’re looking out for yourself and your fellow Terriers. Although, we could use more free dorms for the upcoming CGS students.

Stay safe, take care, and happy holiblaze!

THC you later!
