UTA Campus Going Tobacco Free



Starting August of 2011, you won't be able to smoke a cigarette or even chew tobacco anywhere on the UT Arlington campus.  The university's Jerry Lewis says they're following a national trend.  He says there are now 365 universities and colleges across the country that have some sort of smoking ban on campus and 172 of them are tobacco free like UTA will be.
UTA already prohibits lighting up within 50 feet of any building on campus.  Smokers will be able to light up in their personal vehicles, provided they roll the windows up.
