University of Montana Bans Cigarette SMoking
Several times last week, Julee Stearns strolled along Arthur and Beckwith avenues offering free-drink coupons to smokers standing in the grassy area between the street and the sidewalk.

"Thank you for following the buy cigarette online policy," said Stearns, a University of Montana health promotion specialist.

The cigarettes for sale campus policy went into effect on the UM campus on Sunday, Aug. 28, the day before fall semester classes began. Ashtrays once located 25 feet from building entrances are now placed along the outskirts of campus.

After a yearlong educational campaign - where UM spent time and money hanging posters, sending out emails and visiting campus groups - the effort appeared effective.

"It's been a lot of work," Stearns said. "I was really happy to see people cooperating. I knew they would embrace the change, I just didn't know how long it would take."

Public safety officers did not respond to any complaints of smokers on the interior of campus during the ban's first week and dozens of students ventured to the outskirts to take drags on pipes and cigarettes.

"We have been getting pretty good compliance," said Gary Taylor, director of UM Public Safety. "We haven't had any real problems. I think all of them are figuring out what we're doing."

On Saturday, Aug. 27, as one last smoking cigarettes hurrah, about 30 students gathered in the Oval to puff one last time. It was called the Great Missoulian Smoke Up and was organized by a UM student as an event that wasn't a protest so much as a kiss goodbye to the convenience smokers once enjoyed.

Stearns recognizes the sacrifice smokers are making. It's a serious addiction, she said.

That's why Stearns wanted to thank students, faculty and staff members for complying with the policy. Her walkabouts also proved helpful in answering questions students and employees may have about the policy.

Most of the students were grateful for a free drink and said thank you. Some were technically standing on campus property, but Stearns used the opportunity to point out the boundary lines and thanked them for coming so close to following the cigarettes-free policy.

"This is way better idea than passing out tickets on the Oval," replied one student, who was grateful for a free drink.

One gentleman had no problem following the discount cigarette online policy during the weekdays, but questioned whether Griz fans would comply with the policy during home football games.

The Public Safety chief agreed.

"That will the litmus test of the whole thing," Taylor said.

Event staff and law enforcement plan to educate the community about the new cigarettes store policy. The university purchased sunglasses cases, hand warmers and other giveaway items with the cigarettes logo as a way to spread the word. There are signs in tailgate areas and banners hanging from lightposts.

Law enforcement won't be enforcing the policy with tickets unless a repeat offender refuses to quit smoking cigarettes or chewing cheap cigarette online on campus, Taylor said. The university is encouraging peer enforcement.

Those Griz fans interested in smoking cigarettes will need to leave campus property before lighting up.

A Tobacco Task Force was appointed this summer to assess the policy.

Since 2006, the university has given out more than a 1,000 smoking cigarettes-cessation kits to help those who want to quit smoking cigarettes.

Teens Learn About Harmful Effects of Cigarettes
Teens LeRoeshad Melvin, 19, a graduate of Norwalk High School, now living in Bridgeport, used to smoke cigarettes at least seven cigarettes store a day. However, Roeshad made a decision to eliminate all cigarettes use after learning about its harmful effects during "Don't Let Your Life Go Up in Smoke!", a program sponsored by Southwestern Area Health Education Center (AHEC), the American Lung Association of New England, University of Bridgeport and the State of Connecticut Department of Public Health Tobacco Control Division.

Roeshad was one of 13 area youths from various towns in Fairfield County who participated in the five-day workshop.

Anazia Henderson, 14, a student at Fairfield Ludlowe High School, was a program participant from Fairfield. Though Anazia says she has never smoked cigarettes, she appreciated learning about their adverse effects. “I think this program encouraged me to not become a smoker,” she said. “When I heard about everything that was in cigarettes, it made me never want to pick one up.”

Bridgeport program participants included Acacia Cannon, Tanice Doman, Chase Foster-Spence, Tichina Pemberton, Tiara Turnage, Amani Williams and Malcolm Winston.

“I wanted a fresh start, so I decided to stop smoking cigarettes on that first day of the program,” Roeshad said. “After I heard about all of the poisons that go into your body when you smoke, I couldn't do it anymore.”

Roeshad started smoking cigarettes when he was 16 and attending high school in Norwalk. “Everyone wants to fit in and they think that smoking cigarettes will help them,” he explained. “Peer pressure is the number one reason that kids pick up cigarettes. Some even start to smoke cigarettes while they're in middle school.”

A student at a local barbering school, Roeshad was surprised by all of the health risks associated with cheap cigarettes use, such as heart disease and several different kinds of cancers. “I never knew that one in five deaths in the United States is related to cigarettes,” he said.

The aim of "Don't Let Your Life Go Up in Smoke!" is to raise awareness about the harm of nicotine on the body and the environment, and inspire program participants to become anti-cigarettes advocates. Additionally, its leaders hope to influence young people to consider careers in healthcare.

Dawn Mays-Hardy, director of public policy for the American Lung Association of New England, was pleased to partner with Southwestern AHEC. Mays-Hardy was aware of the non-profit health organization's stellar reputation for effectively communicating with youth about health-related issues and supporting advocacy programs. Based on the success of this summer's program, the two organizations plan to partner together on two anti-cigarettes initiatives: "Students Working Against Tobacco" (SWAT) and "Teens Against Tobacco Use" (TATU). Four students who participated in "Don't Let Your Life Go Up in Smoke!" have already signed on.

“I'm so proud of our young people and impressed by all that they accomplished in only four and a half days of instruction,” said Meredith Ferraro, executive director of Southwestern AHEC. “It's gratifying to see the positive impact that this week made on them.”

U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal was one of the speakers who shared his professional experience in fighting the discount cigarette online industry and safeguarding people, especially the state's youth, from the harmful effects of cigarettes.

At the program's conclusion, Corrine Melvin was radiant as she watched her son Roeshad present his final project onstage. “I am so appreciative of this program,” Melvin stated. “This has had a profound effect on my son. My husband and I are not smokers and we always told him that smoking cigarettes was bad. He never really listened until this week. All I can say is that I'm just loving what it did for my son.”

As a basketball player, Roeshad noticed the change in his body right away. “After you stop smoking cigarettes, your lungs really open up,” Roeshad stated. “It's easier to breathe and it feels so much better.”arn About Harmful Effects of Tobacco
