As of July 1 of this year, smok- ing within 50 feet of the LSA build- ing entrances is prohibited, due to a building policy initiated by LSA Dean Terrence McDonald. As the LSA Building and other campus sites move toward becoming smoke-free, the University Health System is also preparing its services for the transi- tion. In a campus-wide email sent out last April, President Coleman announced that all three of the Uni- versity's campuses would become smoke-free on July 1, 2011. This policy will make all of the university grounds and buildings smoke-free areas. Robert Johnson, Director of Facilities and Operations at the Uni- versity, said the decision to make the LSA Building smoke-free before the rest of campus was due to the accu- mulation of smoke around the build- ing entrances. "Every time you came in the building you had to walk through smoke, and that was bothering a number of people," Johnson said. Because of this accumulation, as well as the fact that many offices overlook the entrances, Johnson said the different departments in the building approved Dean McDonald's smoke-free proposal.
