Getting our drugs straight

Dear Editor,

I have a few comments about the article on Rx Abuse among students published a few weeks ago- Methylphenidate is not in Adderall. Adderall is a mixture of Salts of Amphetamine. Methylphenidate is the generic name for Ritalin or Daytrana. Otherwise, a good article discussing an important topic.

Perhaps you guys should follow up with an article discussing drug interactions (such as recreational users taking multiple depressants at a time). I think that mixing drugs is the most dangerous aspect of illicit use, as seen in the death of Heath Ledger.

Asking a Pharmacist would be a good source of information.

We can’t wait to see you too

Dear Edior,

I am an upcoming freshman for the Fall of 2009. Publicly, I would like to thank the GCSU family for all they have already done for me.

I’m a senior in high school, and I began visiting our magical place in October 2007 to search for the right college for me. As a student with a bit of a physical challenge, the outpouring of support from faculty, staff, and students nearly the instant I stepped foot on campus is immeasurable. Mike Chambers, director of Disability Services, has been wonderful.

I’m so proud to be a Bobcat. Thank you, each and every one of you, from the bottom of my heart.

Erin Breedlove
Future GCSU student
