4.9.2 Illegal Drugs
Cannabis was the most common illegal drug used by students with over
one third (37%) reporting they have used it in the past 12 months and 20%
had used cannabis in the past 30 days.  There were significant differences
between gender, in that a higher proportion of male students reported
using cannabis both in the last year (49%) and in the last 30 days (30%).
Twice as many male students (22%) used cannabis ten or more times in the
past 12 months in comparison to female (11%) students (Figure 13). There
was no difference across year in college. In the past 30 days, 9% of males
and 3% of females used cannabis ten or more times.
