Hello viewers,
This post is published by Katie Untersberger. This time I plan to discuss the repercussions of colleges, and what they are doing to reduce smoking and the negative effects it causes students. A quote from a article online states the concern for Canadian campus's and their progress on smoking bans, “Although considerable progress has been made in controlling tobacco on campus,” the authors wrote, the extent of this control is not as great as the policies would suggest. Canadian campuses still “face a wide range of challenges, including a lack of dedicated and consistent tobacco control personnel, inadequate funding, ownership issues, and enforcement and monitoring dilemmas.” Students interpret these gaps between intent and outcome “as a tacit understanding that smoking can occur on campus without comment or consequence.”
I find this statement to be true even though some change have been made into effect last fall on Sheridan's campus have we seen enough determination to reducing public smoking? Can we really trust that our rights are being recognized that public smoking is not acceptable anymore.
