AlgomaU, UWindsor announce smoke-free campuses

Algoma University and the University of Windsor have both announced that they have made their campuses smoke-free. AlgomaU will not allow smoking or vaping, but CBC reports that the university will make an exception for pre-approved ceremonial smudging. UWindsor has made its campus smoke-free to ensure that the environment is healthy and safe for those on campus. “We know the health implications associated with smoking and second-hand smoke, so today’s move to an entirely smoke-free campus environment is a vital step forward in the University of Windsor’s efforts to provide an environment that better protects the health of our entire campus community,” said UWindsor VP, Human Resources Rita LaCivita.
