Recovery

I'm a recovering addict interested in going to Hampshire. Everything I'd read about it sounded perfect for me (liberal arts school, location, non-traditional grades, self paced, intellectual crowd), until I heard about it's drug reputation. Personally, I can't afford to get back into drugs of any sort (last time I used I spent weeks messed up and ended up flatlining in ICU during a five day blackout), and I'm wondering how realistic it would be for me to go there and stay away from the drug culture. I know there's a certain amount of drinking/drug use that goes on at any college, and I'm just wondering how Hampshire compares. Are there sober dorms? Recovery programs? Does anyone know?
