MARIJUANA IS NOT HARMFUL TO HEALTH, PRODUCTIVITY

Just for the record, there is no scientific evidence that using
marijuana impairs the ability to learn. Many straight-A students later
admit to using marijuana without any reduction in their scholarship.
The records of thousands of highly successful people, including
presidents, who used marijuana puts the lie to "Reefer Madness"
notions that marijuana injures the brain. The real danger is teaching
students that lies can justify a brain-dead policy.
