Drugs and Alcohol and being hired as a cop.

[JustDontDie]

Ok, everyone knows that lots of people going into college like to party, drink a little and maybe toke out every once in a while. What are the rules when going through the process of being hired as a cop? What if you spent two years in college getting a general education and in that time you were under legal drinking age and you did a little bit of that, and possible smoked a few times? Then upon finishing your classes you apply at a station. Would this pretty much definately disqualify you? Even if you admit it and try not weezle around it? Is there a certain amount of time you would have to of distanced yourself from any sort of drugs and driking or whatever?

We like at least five years clean between misdemeanor use and application.
