    I graduated in 2003. My DARE teachers basically taught drug abstinence and telling an adult about people offering you drugs. The really didn’t talk about gateway drugs and what it does to your brain. This was in Illinois.

      You’re not the first person to mention some regional differences. Think this is opening up a bigger research project of year graduated to region!

      I graduated a few years before you, also in Illinois, and can confirm that.

      I can also confirm that I have not resisted the devil’s lettuce.
