Abstract
Citing the need to provide drug education for prospective teachers the authors refer to a study conducted to determine the number of colleges that have implemented such a program. Some attention is given to the characteristics related to attitude formation in childhood and the need to begin drug education early, with emphasis being placed on mental health. Supportive data are presented from a survey of students' drug knowledge and practice at State University College, Stony Brook, N.Y., regarding how drug education programs should be taught. Several relevant factors are listed which should be considered in a drug education program from the viewpoint of the students surveyed. The authors conclude that there is probably no more urgent task facing our colleges than planned programs for training teachers in drug abuse education.
