“Whether we go smoke-free or tobacco-free, e-cigarettes will be included in the ban part of that,” Sylvester said. “The reason for that is very simple: They aren’t FDA approved.”

The research that is available shows chemicals from the plastic cartridges and metal holdings can get into the vapor, and people are at risk for breathing those in, she said.

With some reluctance, Sylvester acknowledges vaping can be a successful smoking cessation aid, particularly to a lifelong smoker, but she remains adamant it has no place on a college campus.
“There is absolutely no reason for anybody below the age of 26 to use them,” Sylvester said. “It’s pure nicotine and it’s addictive. And because it’s not FDA approved, nobody really knows what they are getting in those cartridges.”

Good, those things are just as annoying as cigarettes.

I think they are worse because the people that smoke them think they are above smoking rules. If you can't smoke a cig, you cant smoke an ecig IMO. Don't pull that it's just vapor shite on me.

But to Sylvester, an offering of different flavors is a “major red flag” that the product is being marketed to children, adding that banning e-cigarettes from LSU’s campus will help keep them out of the hands of children at the University Laboratory School and LSU Day Care Center.
“Those schools really are the primary targets for these things,

Well what is it then? I've never been around one. Does it stink?

I don't get the problem here. I though those e-cigarettes were not putting out actual smoke but water vapor instead? There's a guy in my office who puffs on his not 10' from where I'm sitting now and unless I see him doing it, I never even notice. Do they have a scent that some don't like or something? I can't smell them if they do.

What a bunch of pussies.

Is 26 a magic age where nicotine is no longer addictive?

I've never seen a study on what's actually in the vapor and I'd like to, but I have a hard time believing it's worse than what's in a regular cig.
