They called my wife (an alumni) for money last night during dinner of course.

I often wonder why asthma has risen ten fold since these smoke out’s have happened. I am seriously confused over this. When everyone smoked everywhere, nobody had asthma (or very few cases)...take away cigarettes and suddenly everyone has it. Strange...

I don’t think this movement is about smoking at all. It’s a massive mind control social experiment. By forcing actions like this, the officials of any targeted area get to control the way people in the entire target area act. It didn’t work for booze, but it has worked for smoking. This stuff reminds me of the old Star Trek episode where people calmly lined up to be exterminated in a computer intergalactic war. Just like sheep.

>stating in a news release that tobacco usage will only be permitted in private vehicles.

Wow, now that is generous.

They are allowing you to smoke in your own car. - and, I presume, even in your own home!

Imagine that! Big brother loves you ...

English major Adam Hickam said the requirement to go to his car to smoke is irritating.

Not only that, but when he goes back to class he's going to smell really bad after basting in his own smoke.

Others on campus thought the ban was a wonderful idea. Mary Ann Murray thought the 50-foot no smoking point was too little.

“Well, as a respiratory therapist, I feel that that is very good for campus on a whole because even though they have those little outposts, you still have to walk through that cloud of smoke,” Murray said.

This reminds me very much of my current workplace. We smoke outside and you’ve got people walking by choking and gaging in the wide open air. To me it all seems incredibly absurd. It seems more akin to a mental condition than anything else. I would love to see her behind a belching bus. In my mind you can’t have it both ways. Either make tobacco products illegal, or leave me the hell alone! These nanny stater’s make me want to hurl.

Fatties be warned.

While I don't approve of this type of social engineering I do believe that the school is acting within their sphere of control.
Does the school own the property? If so, the owner/operator of the school controls what activities can be participated in on that property.

If students don't want to be forced, (coerced), into this type of control then they should vote with their feet.
