Starting the first day of instruction for the fall semester, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign campus will be smoke & tobacco free. The new effort builds upon the smoke-free policy that was successfully implemented in 2014, banning the use of all smoke-producing tobacco products on campus.
The new smoke and tobacco free policy applies to everyone – students, faculty, staff, students and visitors. It includes all forms of tobacco, including but not limited to chewing tobacco, snuff, snus and dissolvable forms such as orbs and strips. Vaping devices such as e-cigarettes and juuls are still prohibited. The banned locations include all campus-owned property – indoors and outdoors – as well as private vehicles parked on campus-owned property.
