Smoke-free Campus
The Saint Mary’s University campus (indoors and out) is completely smoke free. The policy prohibits the use of all smoke and tobacco products (with the exception of tobacco used for Indigenous ceremonial purposes), traditional cigarettes, e-cigarettes, chew, pipes, cigars, hookah or water pipe smoking, snus, snuff, etc.
.
Please note that e-cigarettes are included in the policy.
Smoke-Free Campus & Tobacco Use Committee
A campus-wide committee includes representation from administration, staff and students, and connects to outside agencies such as Smoke-Free Nova Scotia, the Lung Association of Nova Scotia, and Nova Scotia Healthy Authority.
The Smoke-Free Campus & Tobacco Use Committee evaluates reports of repeat offenders, neighbourhood concerns, overall policy issues and recommends actions for resolution.
