ACC goes tobacco-free

By Andy Sevilla

Cigarettes at Austin Community College campuses have been banned since 2012, but as the new year rolled in it’s lights out for all tobacco products at every college campus.

In November, the Austin Community College (ACC) District Board of Trustees approved an expansion to its 2012 smoke-free policy, to include nicotine vapor products and devices, such as electronic cigarettes, and smokeless tobacco products to its prohibition.
