My son stayed in a 'substance free' dorm at Michigan. He didn't have a substance problem, but didn't want to be around people who smoked, were drunks or did drugs. His roommates were of a similar temperment.
Religious, decent but not religious, and some ROTC kids opted for spaces in these dorms to avoid the problems that kids can get into at the regular dorms.
Having gone to the same school in the 70s, I know what it's like to live w/several hundred drunk, dope smoking, 19 year olds. It ain't pretty.

Good for your son and bravo for the college to provide such a dorm!
There were girls in my (Catholic) college who regularly whined to me about their roomies having sex in their presence in their room, but didn't have the stones to complain to their RA about it for fear of being deemed a "straight".
Sad.

(There are two sides to every argument, but I'm too busy to listen to yours.)
