Marquette University’s Academic Senate and University Staff Senate unanimously approved the MUSG and Student Health Advisory Board Tobacco Free Campus Policy.
After five years of work led by students across campus, university approval for the policy is complete. Beginning immediately, MUSG will work with university offices including Facilities, Planning, and Management, and the Office of Marketing and Communication on implementation.
The policy will take effect Aug. 1.
“Countless hours have been spent formulating this policy with students, staff, and faculty. I am excited to see the impact that a tobacco free campus has on the health and well-being of the Marquette community,” said Joseph Fuchs said, former MUSG senator and chairman of SHAB.
