"A new report from the state health department shows a dramatic rise in heroin use in Alaska. The number of hospitalizations for heroin related causes nearly doubled in the state from 2008 to 2012" [2]
"Alaska had one of the lowest four-year graduation rates in the United States in the 2013-14 school year...That year, 71.1 percent of Alaska's high school seniors graduated in four years -- the rest dropped out or needed more time to get their diplomas." It was 68% in 2011.

I'm suggesting it as a possibility yes. Parent tried to suggest it as all rosy up in Alaska and suggest there's no negative correlation for UBI up there. And Alaska is toward the top on two major issues so it's worth noting.
If you don't have to work maybe drugs become more likely and graduating becomes less important?
