Enhanced Enforcement of Tobacco-free Campus Policy Begins Spring 2015
Emory officially became a tobacco-free campus on January 1, 2012, prohibiting smoking and tobacco use on Emory University and Emory Healthcare properties. As a result, tobacco use has significantly declined across our campus. However, Emory, like many other universities and colleges that have adopted similar policies, continues to struggle with compliance issues. Campus Life, Campus Services, and Human Resources are teaming up to substantially strengthen deterrence and enforcement measures, beginning with the 2015 spring semester. Read more.
