The current smoking policy at UWO is no smoking within 10 metres of any entrance to a building...do you find that smokers adhere to this policy If your answer is NO.........support us in our political action project to provide designated smoking areas along with waste receptacles!!! By implementing this change, we are increasing environmental health (cigarette butt litter), as well the health of the student body (by reducing second hand smoke exposure).

Updates

October 22, 2008

The feedback regarding lingering cigarette litter and smoke exposure near campus entrances continues to arrive from students across all departments. I am currently organizing these specific accounts to present a clear picture of the situation to the administration. Please continue to monitor this space for news on our next steps toward a cleaner and safer campus environment.

The momentum behind this proposal demonstrates a clear desire for a cleaner and healthier campus environment. This growing support reinforces the necessity of our request to the administration.

LITERALLY nobody follows the 10 meter rule. It’s a joke at this point.

Every single entrance smells like an ashtray. It is actually gross walking into class and having to hold my breath.

Please just give them a place to go so the rest of us don't have to deal with it. Tired of stepping over butts everywhere.

If smokers had a trash can right there they might actually use it instead of just tossing them on the sidewalk.

way too many people smoking right by the doors. makes it impossible for people with asthma to get to class.
