A recent survey conducted by Harris Poll on behalf of the newly-formed Coalition to Prevent Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Medication Misuse (CPAMM) finds that college students’ perceptions and attitudes towards the misuse, abuse and diversion of ADHD prescription stimulants are complex. The findings paint a portrait of students who recognize the risks of misuse, but understand why some students may choose to misuse, given the academic pressures in today’s college environment. CPAMM intends to use the findings to inform and develop educational campaigns to help prevent nonmedical use of ADHD prescription stimulants. The survey was conducted online between May 15 and June 11, 2014 among 2,056 US college students (full-time, 91%, part-time, 9%), defined as adults aged 18 to 24 enrolled and seeking a degree at a 4-year college or university and attending at least some in-person classes.1

The Columbine Cause by Evan Long raises questions about the April 20 1999 attack on Columbine High School which have gone unaddressed or unanswered by corporate and state media including Why do counts of the ballistics evidence charts yield totals far greater than the three hundred odd shots officially stated by law enforcement officials to have been fired Why did students and teachers inside the school during the attack describe up to a dozen distinct shooters some of whom some of them were able to identify by name as neither Eric Harris nor Dylan Klebold Why were the people of the world told that the attack was a wake up call when some Columbine students knew it to have been the big rumor for up to two years in advance There is much more to the story of the attack on Columbine than has been widely made known
