USI Campus Goes Smoke Free
Clearing the air at the University of Southern Indiana by going smoke cigarettes free.
So if you're on campus, you can light up in your car but that's about it. After nine months of preparation, the campus went smoke cigarettes free Friday.
University officials tell 14 News the move will lead to a cleaner campus and more importantly a healthier student body.
So how do officials intend on enforcing this policy change?
Administrators say they don't have a set plan, for now their relying on signs to educate and deter students and faculty from smoking cigarettes on campus.
Scattered outside the University Center are the last cigarette butts you'll ever see on USI's campus.
"We are excited to have cleaner air, a cleaner campus free of cheap cigarettes waste," Assistant VP of Marketing and Communications Todd Wilson says.
From now on the University of Southern Indiana is smoke cigarettes free.
Smokers once able to light up 30 feet from a building, university officials say will now have to take their pack and lighter to the car.
If they live on campus, 30 feet away for their dorm room.
Sophomore Melanie Schmitt is on board.
"I hate walking through smoke cigarettes to classes especially at the LA building things get really bad," Schmitt says.
The university is now one of 500 United States university's to nix smoking cigarettes.
This change should not come as a shock to students and staff. Nine months ago, the university announce July 1st to mark a smoke cigarettes free campus.
But just in case they forgot, reminders cover every inch of campus from this screen in the library to each door leading into a building.
The university acknowledges for some students and staff eliminating smoking cigarettes on campus will be tough.
If caught, they'll be given a flyer looking much like the sign. At that point no disciplinary action will be taken.
One student who smokes tells 14 News he respects the university policy on smoking cigarettes but questions with five minutes in between classes how he'll be able to go to his car and smoke.
"They should have a designated area so they can go smoke cigarettes there," student Ayyad Allashidi says.

Smoking Ban May Go Too Far For MSU
From a health standpoint, there’s a lot to be said for banning smoking cigarettes from the Montana State University campus. But the blanket ban on cigarettes store use adopted by campus leaders earlier this month seems a bit much.Protecting nonsmokers from secondhand smoke cigarettes is certainly a good thing, and measures to ensure that happens are justifiable. But a ban on all use of discount cigarettes on the 1,400-acre-plus MSU campus – including smokeless discount cigarette online and online cigarettes use in individuals’ private vehicles – doesn’t seem necessary to...
