“Drug Use and Life-style Among College Undergraduates: Nine years later”. 
Arch Gen Psychiatry. 1981;38:588-591.
Abstract
A questionnaire study at drug use and life-style among college seniors, previously performed in 1969, was repeated at the same college in 1978 with identical methods. Moderate increases in marijuana use were found; cocaine use had increased dramatically; most other drug use changed only slightly. Differences between users and nonusers, already modest in 1969, had narrowed further by 1978: users and nonusers were indistingulshable on grades, athletics, other college activities, career plans, and subjective attenation. Only heterosexual activity and visits to a psychiatrist still distinguish users from nonusers.
