STATE COLLEGE, Pa. - A Penn State University student was charged with two felonies because police said they found marijuana plants growing in his dorm room over spring break.

Residence hall staffers routinely inspect rooms over spring break and other university breaks. Staffers checking David J. Collins' room called police when they saw plants growing inside his closet. University police said they found marijuana growing in the closet and in an overturned desk.

Collins, 22, of Philadelphia, did not have a local phone number; he did not immediately respond to an e-mail from The Associated Press seeking comment.

Penn State University Police supervisor Bill Moerschbacher said marijuana arrests were not uncommon in the dorms, but that it was rare to find someone actually growing marijuana on campus.

"That's kind of odd to have people growing it," Moerschbacher said. "People tend to realize that growing plants is going to attract attention."

A preliminary hearing was scheduled for Thursday for Collins, who was charged with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute and manufacturing a controlled substance, both felonies, as well as misdemeanor drug and drug paraphernalia charges.
