TOBACCO POLICY
Under the College's policy, a person should not ordinarily be exposed to the harmful effects of passive smoking, except by personal choice. Smoking and tobacco use is prohibited in all public areas, except those specifically mentioned.
Public areas include corridors, lounges, stairwells, waiting rooms, restrooms, classrooms, elevators, lobbies, and meeting rooms.
Smoking/tobacco use is allowed in the following areas: private offices, although occupants are asked to be considerate of non-smokers who may have a need to enter their office; and within individual apartments in John Lane House and Leo Flood Hall. Smoking is prohibited in Esseff Hall, Holy Cross Hall, Luksic Hall and the Sheehy-Farmer Campus Center.
Receptacles will be placed in outdoor areas on campus where smoking might occur. Periodic reviews will be conducted to ensure that passive smoke does not become problematic in any outdoor area. Smokers are requested not to impede traffic by congregating near building entranceways.
While members of the community are expected to police themselves, violations should be reported to the director of human resources, the appropriate staff member responsible for overseeing the specific facility and/or the vice president for student affairs.

Residence Halls and College Apartments
Tobacco use will be restricted to apartments in Flood Hall and John Lane House. Tobacco use is prohibited in Esseff, Holy Cross and Luksic Halls.
Tobacco use in Flood and Lane is not permitted in public areas, i.e., bathrooms, hallways, stairwells, or lounges. Students who choose a tobacco-use option should only use tobacco products in their apartment with doors closed. Violation of this policy will result in disciplinary action.
