@Agorist The nation as a whole is sending a lot of mixed signals about pot. A lot of young people are reading these signals as saying that smoking pot is just fine, to the point that they are reckless in leaving it around their dorm room. Well, you now know that in at least the state where you were attending college, it is not “fine.”

Your life isn’t over. I suspect you can join the military if you want to. You can apply to another college, or maybe just go to a community college for one year and then try to transfer somewhere. No, you will not go to Harvard, but there are plenty of good schools out there.

I am not a particularly religious person, but the Bible says God works through all things for good. On a personal level I have had some terrible things happen to me that have, over time, turned out just fine. You may not believe it now, but this could be something that you may look back on as one of the best things that ever happened to you. It really depends on what choices you make from now. Just make the best of things, start making some better choices, and I assure you that your life will be just fine.
