In June our faculty published a survey concerning the smoking policy in the common areas, specifically in front of the building entrances (GG76, GG80-82), in the Bandito's terrace and Turnzaal entrance. What raised controversy is that only 179 people responded (less than European Studies second year students alone).
We believe that both the time period chosen for the publication (during the summer, when hardly anyone checks their university email) and the very limited participation to the survey undermine the legitimacy of the policy. Through this petition we do not aim at re-establishing the previous smokers monopoly, but rather find a compromise that suits the community at large by redoing the survey, and making sure that all Fasosians take part in the decision process.
LET'S DRAW LINES TO CONNECT EACH OTHER AND NOT TO DIVIDE ONE ANOTHER!

I am currently drafting a formal letter to the faculty board to challenge the validity of the summer survey results. We are requesting a full meeting to review the data collection methods and propose a more inclusive timeline for student input.

I support the fact that in front of the entrances smoking should not be allowed, however it should be allowed to smoke in the banditos garden.
I am against the smoking ban of the Banditos garden. The entrences is fine by me.
Honestly, the new policy only makes smokers block the corridor. I get the non-smoking policy for the entrances, but the garden at banditos should really be allowed as smoking area. It's getting lonely there...
I believe it is fair not to smoke in front of the buildings (GG76, GG80-82), but rules should be more flexible for what concerns the Bandito's terrace and Turnzaal entrance.
Compromise would be not smoking in front of the two builidings entrances, but smoking in the Bandito's terrace
Thanks for doing this

making us smoke in the corridor is not the best options for non smokers who walk to class, the best thing would be to leave the bandito's garden to the smokers.
