Think of careers in agriculture and plowing fields or feeding cattle might spring to mind. The Agriculture Department at Stanislaus State, however, takes a wider view and has spent time this summer sharing its vision.

Beginning September 1, 2017, Stanislaus State will be a completely tobacco-free, smoke-free and vape-free campus. All tobacco products, including cigarettes, hookahs, chewing tobacco, smokeless tobacco, vape pens and e-cigarettes will not be permitted in or outside any buildings or in parking areas.

These policies will protect the health and safety of Stan State's students, faculty, staff and campus visitors by eliminating second-hand smoke and will ensure equal access for individuals with asthma and smoke allergies.
