Law Enforcement
Corvallis could feel conservative for an Oregon college town. Police had a tough reputation, especially in traffic stops involving a driver they thought was high. Some let people go when they were honest, while others took it personally if they thought someone was lying. There were also accounts of Black drivers and people perceived as having an urban look drawing more police attention. Oregon’s adult-use rules have changed since then, as covered in Marijuana Laws.
Where to Buy Marijuana
Oregon State’s campus was the main lead, particularly the dorms and the north side from Kings to 30th Street. The local head shop Bad Habits was the fallback people mentioned.
