Beginning Sept. 1, those smoking a cigarette on the Stanislaus State campus will be asked to put it out – not “butts” about it. The new tobacco-free, smoke-free and vape-free campus policy is part of a larger California State University system initiative to wipe out all tobacco products, including cigarettes, hookahs, chewing tobacco, smokeless tobacco, vape pens and e-cigarettes, banning them from the inside and outside of any buildings as wells as in parking lots. The American College Health Association has recommended all colleges and universities adopt a 100 percent tobacco-free campus policy, and nationally, more than 1,200 colleges are smoke free.
