POLICY

Aurora University has adopted a policy in order to minimize health risks, improve the quality of air and enhance the campus environment. Aurora University will maintain smoke-free and tobacco-free buildings on the George Williams College of Aurora University campus in Wisconsin.

To that end, all campus buildings including residence halls are smoke-free and tobacco-free. This includes smokeless tobacco. Persons wishing to smoke must do so outside of buildings and must maintain a minimum distance of 25 feet from any entrance. Visitors and guests on campus are expected to adhere to these policies.

Violations of this policy may result in disciplinary action up to and including termination.

In deference to smoker's concerns, the Aurora Campus Wellness Center will carry self-help material for those interested in ceasing to smoke. Other self-help information can be obtained by contacting the American Lung Association at 1-800-LUNG-USA.

Please see HR Policy Number 605-AUR for the policy which applies to the Aurora University campus in Illinois.

Questions regarding this policy should be referred to Human Resources.
