<p>From Inside Higher Ed: The board of the City University of New York voted Monday to adopt a broad ban on tobacco for the university systems 23 campuses, making CUNY the largest tobacco-free public university system in the United States. The policy prohibits the use, marketing and promotion of tobacco on all grounds and facilities, including the areas outside campus buildings, and bars tobacco use during all events, including athletics.</p>
<p>LOL, Good for them!</p>
<p>Find it funny that 99% of the people I know that go to a CUNY smoke, haha</p>
<p>tis gonna be interesting, the Community colleges are absolutely LOADED with hard core crack addicts, any opinions on Macalay?</p>
<p>haha everyone will just end up going across the street to smoke. Sure the campus might become “tobacco free” but that doesn’t really solve much does it? Besides being able to walk out the front doors without smelling smoke?</p>
<p>I enjoy smoking right outside of Baruch, Damn</p>
<p>I’m strongly in favor of the idea to forbid the use of tobacco on campus. Imposing second-hand smoke on others is frankly immoral and colleges shouldn’t abet such harmful activity.</p>
<p>Though, college administrators are pragmatic, and realize that smokers are paying customers.</p>
<p>The moralizing of smoking has gotten way out of hand. This legislation goes too far.</p>
<p>Come on, smoking outside not too close to buildings exposes others to so little secondhand smoke it hardly matters. Colleges are residential areas in part, and they shouldn’t be able to stop their residents, who are adults, from smoking if they so choose. It’s their legal right. That’s like creating a tobacco-free town. People are going to anyways, also.</p>
<p>I don’t even smoke anymore, I hate the smell now, and I think this is ridiculous.</p>
<p>I go to a CUNY school; I don’t smoke, but I find this ban utterly ridiculous.</p>
<p>I don’t see why people care so much about other people smoking. It definitely seems to go beyond their concern over second hand smoke. It’s the same kind of mentality that religious nuts have when they try to convert everyone to their beliefs. Oh well, I’m not planning on going to CUNY anyways.</p>
<p>Exactly. I’m from the city a lot of my friends go to CUNY schools. But people who are in Macaulay have a senior CUNY school base so I don’t think being in the honors program means anything in terms of smoking…</p>
<p>^what? Am I missing something here but what does Macaulay have to do with anything…that said anyone recommend going to some sort of CUNY program for mathematics, I am going to skip 3 years of Undergrad math in high school, assume this is true…would i find homage in any CUNY programs?</p>
<p>Didn’t you ask for an opinion on Macaulay? I assumed it was in reference to the main post. If you have a different question, maybe make another thread??</p>
<p>Oooooooh okay, and problem with CC and CUNY is there are so few threads about CUNY and no one answers anything, anyways I didn’t realize you were responding to me, thanks, Congrats on Harvard!</p>
<p>Yeah sorry I forgot to quote your post. </p>
<p>Haha thanks, dear. Well, for great math/sci programs, try City College…there are still smokers there though (just to keep it relevant to the OP :P)</p>
<p>this is great
breathing secondhand smoke is one of the worst forms of torture i can think of</p>
<p>but wow… i’m sure there’s a lot of mad people this might be a bit extreme</p>
