- The DEA Still Thinks Weed Has ‘No Medical Use or Purpose’
- Currently the University of Mississippi is the only college campus federally allowed to grow the drug, but that will likely change with the updated policy.
- According to the Washington Post , the agency’s decision to keep marijuana Schedule I is due in part to the FDA, who recently concluded that there still isn’t enough scientific data to prove the drug is safe for medical use.
- While the government might be dragging its feet on total legalization, it has decided to give the green light to a number of universities to grow weed in order to study its medical effects.
- The Drug Enforcement Administration is expected to announce today that it will continue to classify marijuana as a “Schedule I” drug, right up there alongside heroin, acid, and bath salts.
