To what extent is academic "doping" acceptable?

I agree. School is about learning, gaining skills, doing research, and demonstrating evidence that you have done that. It’s not about conforming to societal rules. If a non-ADD student illegally takes Adderall, passes all his classes and/or his thesis, but gets caught with the Adderall, he becomes a college graduate with a criminal record. Those do exist.

Or they get caught before they graduate and get expelled. Or have to take a semseter or year off to fight the case. Or can’t continue because they’ve been jailed. It’s hard to guess the risk.
