No-Smoking Policy

Several years ago a policy that prohibited smoking in all academic and administrative buildings on campus was implemented. In August of 1999, all residence halls were also designated as smoke-free buildings.

Outdoor smoking spaces with benches and trash/ash receptacles have been provided outside the residence halls ( at least one per complex).

Though enforcement of this policy does not fall within the Honor Code, violations of the policy may include fines and /or referral to the appropriate judicial body for action.

Students who violate the Residential Hall Smoking policy by smoking within 25 feet of any Residential building will receive a $25 fine upon the first violation. Upon subsequent violations, the fine will increase incrementally by $10 per violation (that is $35 for the second violation, $45 for the third, etc) After 3 violations, the student may be referred to the Honor Code Council.
