LSU sent me a brochure begging for money

i won't send them any of my money if they keep instituting insane policies like this one


You realize this is a state law and affects all public universities, right?

Bama allows smoking on campus. The CW made a push last year to ban it, everyone went "LOL No" and nothing happened.



Imagine a world where newboys weren't obligated to carry multiple Marlboro Light and Parliament packs. Perish the thought.

The fact that the CW is a bunch of pompous, self-righteous idiots and that their main argument was "Auburn did it! Let's be like Auburn!" didn't exactly help either.

Really don't see how they plan on enforcing this. Is some cop gonna walk and ask to see your student id? Driver's license? Can you simply refuse?

i think it's stupid. it's legal to smoke, so i don't get why a public university would ban it.

i don't smoke fwiw.

When I was too cheap to buy TP, I'd wipe my arse with the CW.

FSU did the same thing In January, I mean as non tobacco smoker I didn't care and was cool with it. Think they had some designated smoking areas in places for places with a lot of visitors.

Made me laugh at how serious they were about it considering how easy it was for me to smoke J's when I lived on campus as a freshman.

Or e-cigs. I thought the point of those were to allow people to get their nicotine fix without plumes of smoke everywhere.

"Does this mean you could get a ticket for lighting up on your walk between class or at an LSU tailgate party? Absolutely not. Campus police will not have the authority to write tickets or impose fines on smokers." LINK ]
