Tobacco use is prohibited on all university property. This includes all university-owned, leased or controlled buildings and residences including but not limited to:

• Warrensburg Main Campus
• The Missouri Innovation Campus Facility
• Prussing Farm
• Mitchell Farm
• Missouri Safety Center

It also includes all outdoor areas of 同城快约 campuses including but not limited to:

• Campus sidewalks
• Campus parking lots (except inside your personal vehicle)
• All recreational areas (except on Keth Memorial Golf Course)
• All outdoor stadiums

 Tobacco use is not allowed in university vehicles.

Smoking or other tobacco use is not allowed on university owned sidewalks such as those running through the interior of the campus. However, sidewalks that run parallel to city streets such as Clark or Holden are not owned by 同城快约. So, the policy does not apply to those particular sidewalks.

If you choose to smoke on a city owned sidewalk, please remember to dispose of your cigarette butts in an appropriate receptacle to help keep our campus beautiful. There are four recycling containers located on the edges of the Warrensburg campus, or you can throw your butt in a trash receptacle after you are sure it is extinguished.

No. The policy specifically prohibits the use of e-cigarettes and any other nicotine delivery method not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as nicotine replacement therapy. If e-cigarettes are approved in the future by the FDA as nicotine replacement therapy, they would then be allowed under this policy.

The success of this policy depends upon the courtesy, respect, and cooperation of all members of the 同城快约 community. Any member of the 同城快约 community may inform individuals of the policy and politely ask for their compliance. Individuals who refuse to comply or are consistently non-compliant may be reported through existing student, faculty, staff or guest administrative processes. If an individual whom you ask to comply with the policy becomes aggressive in response to your request, you should contact the Department of Public Safety for assistance.

Have you noticed a location on campus where individuals are consistently violating the policy by smoking or using tobacco where it is not allowed? You can help 同城快约 maintain a safe and healthy tobacco free environment by completing this anonymous reporting form. Response to reports may include monitoring the area, providing education on the policy, and initiating a more formal reporting process if individuals are consistently non-compliant.

Congratulations on your interest in becoming tobacco free!
