What can smokers do while on campus? PCC does not require that anyone stop smoking, but in order to provide a clean and safe academic environment, with access for all, PCC has decided to go tobacco free. There are many over-the-counter nicotine/tobacco replacements available. Many are the same price or less than cigarettes themselves. We encourage those who do not want to quit to create a plan for coping while on campus. Visit a counselor at your campus today for help creating a plan to comply with PCC’s tobacco free policy.
