No more cigars on the bench for Russ I guess. Instead of trying to control behavior, maybe the University could try to control tuition increases.
OT: Campus to be tobacco/smoke free this fall...
- Thread starter MtNittany
- Start date
Wait. Will we still be able to smoke meat overnight in the lots?
Does that mean no more weed in the dorms??
Time to switch to shooting up heroin.
They get to chose what is acceptable diversity and who gets included. Don't you know the rest are just deplorables.What happened to DIVERSITY. AND. INCLUSION.?
Many people are offended by perfume. Ban it. Deodorant as well while you're at it. Peanuts and shellfish can KILL those w/ bad allergies. Ban them.
I hate to even ask this, but are you permitted to ride a bike on campus w/out one of those John Kerry helmets on?

Second hand smoke is linked to lung cancer as well as asthma attacks and other breathing issues for non-smokers. Bars banned tobacco for worker safety. I applaud the move. I teach at a college in MD that has been tobacco free for years.
Needs Smoking Co-ed Exemption

What about alcohol? Sugary drinks? Riding bikes without helmets? Unprotected sex? Oral sex? Walking in bare feet? Not treating your athlete's foot?
Looks like there will be a lot of brownies in the dorm rooms this year.
doesn't apply to union employees lol
have fun watching opp workers smoke and chew

Gotta ban lima beans too.....they can’t be good for anyone!
I don't have to breathe someone else's sugary soda. Personal freedom has boundaries when your behavior has a negative impact on others around you.
But sugary sodas contain a lot of empty calories, which leads to obesity, which leads to diabetes and other health problems, which leads to an increase in insurance costs, which leads to higher premiums for everyone. Ban them.
You joke but apparently there were concerns raised by student government representatives that this new policy would be discriminatory to Asian students since smoking is more popular in Asian cultures. I guess that line of thinking was rejected.
you pay their health insurance. But you aren't breathing somebody's smoke if they are outside smoking in a designated smoking area.
They ought to ban that crap incense that the hippie-wanna-be's burn.
just build heavy rubber huts with no ventilation and if you want to smoke there you go, go in there.
Pre-game cigars at our tailgate is a long-time tradition for my *hole buddies and me. (Even Wifey tolerates this, sometimes quietly.)
Are my tailgate cigars banned also?! I need to know how much to care about this ban... meaning, does it impact me and my selfish pleasure?
And if so, which BOT candidate do I vote for to get this overturned?! Or who will promise to get it overturned?!
What say ye, Norm?!

Common sense does not prevail today. It gets in the way of the mommy state / don't offend me with your ideas ideology. Diversity is in the mind of the beholder. Libertarians such as myself are are dying breed...
No vaping either as per a local news channel tonighr. No tobaccy products of any kind.
There's no way to enforce this unless they have full time tobacco police. Although, that would be another excuse to increase tuition!
I spit a lot, so I do it into bottles. I am disabled so it looks brown. Social warriors will rally to my cause...
Penn State is now a smoke-free campus*
*unless you're in a union, and if so, you may continue to smoke

Which actually exposes everyone present to nicotine more than smoking since the nicotine is airborne.
Alcohol is also banned on campus so I assume you'll be ok.
