I don't smoke and don't care to be around tobacco smoke, but I think the politically correct policy is silly...but I like the video with the dig at utk...
ASU didnt really have a choice in the matter. State of Arkansas passed a law about a year and a half ago banning smoking on all School Campuses, and then banned smoking at all Indoor public places.
Don't smoke and don't dip/chew but I think this is absolute horse !! Politically correct BS to worry about "the children" or to provide some sort of group think and take care of your health for you because you are too dumb and/or lazy to worry about your own.
I have absolutely no idea how I made it to adulthood, let alone my ripe old age of 48. I was 18 years old and I was allowed to walk into a bar and order a beer. One of my roommates smoked cigarettes (the horror). My fraternity had keg parties on a quite regular occurrance where we attempted to drink too much and plied young coeds with jungle juice in the hopes of (gasp) having sex. Hell, I played my best intramural softball with a beer sitting right next to me (you have to protect the beer, my friend).
Somehow, through all of that carnage of boozing and being around all that second hand smoke, we ended up with a couple of doctors, several pharmacists, accountants, school principals, retired Army officers.....how did we all get so far? A bunch of busybodies who probably didn't get drunk enough or laid enough.

Another perspective, besides a health reason, to look at this would be the cleanliness of the campus. I can say, as a student, that a lot of people just throw their cigarettes on the ground.

Any country or state that allows its legal, adult citizens to legally kill other human beings, create life, accept the covenant of marriage, and accept responsibility for a mortgage but thinks that very same person does not posess the brainpower to decide for themselves whether or not they should have a beer...is SICK.

I don't like being around cigarette smoke but I can tolerate it for awhile, but what makes me really pissed is seeing cigarette butts all over the ground where smokers tend to congregate...or even worse is seeing one flick their cigarette out their car window.
