Why hasn the 25 foot rule been enforced?
Until a year ago there was no consistent regulation or discussion about tobacco on campus collaboratively across departments. Now, with a Tobacco Taskforce in place, that collaboration exists. Campus safety, Citizenship and Community Standards, and Human Resources are all on board. Enforcement for a tobacco-free DU would look similar to other policies on campus. In that if a person is violating the policy they will be adjudicated through the appropriate office. Other schools that have gone tobacco-free report a high degree of compliancy through proper awareness, education, and well-executed implementation of the policy.
