WSU Announces Tobacco-Free Policy Story by: WSU Office of University Communication Effective Jan. 12, 2009, all Winona State University campuses in Winona are tobacco-free. WSU President Judith Ramaley said, “In accordance with our mission, we are devoted to improving the health and well-being of our campus community by setting an example of healthy practice.” According to Ramaley, the decision to expand the current policy to include campus open spaces and athletic facilities was based on a review of responses from campus constituency groups and an examination of the growing prevalence of tobacco-free policies in higher education communities and other organizations. “Wellness and fitness are a major theme for the university, expressed through our Integrated Wellness Complex, our academic programs and our community partnerships,” Ramaley said. “This is the natural next step, to practice what we teach.” For more information, visit the Tobacco-Free campus link on the WSU homepage.
