CTC Should Remain Smoke Free

I feel that the banning of cigarettes on campus is a great idea. Even though I am a smoker I totally agree with the ban. I feel this way for several reasons. One of the main reasons why I agree is simply out of respect for nonsmokers. They should have the right not to smell like smoke, not to be forced to inhale second hand smoke, and by law they have the right not to be forced to enter establishments for the public and fear they will have to be faced with health concerns of smoking.
