A new semester means a fresh start and a chance to make choices that support your future.

Think you can't be affected by THC because you don't feel high anymore?
Think again.

With regular cannabis use, the brain can develop tolerance, meaning more THC may be needed to produce the same noticeable effects. But tolerance doesn't mean THC stops affecting the brain and body.

Attention, memory, reaction time, coordination, and decision-making can still be affected.

Understanding the difference between feeling an effect and being affected matters.
