Having a smoke-free campus would not only be good for students, but also its surrounding environment. Cigarettes have many chemicals that are harmful to the human body and affect others around the person smoking. I believe that smoking cigarettes at CTC should be banned.

I noticed some campuses that do have designated smoke areas, it is littered with cigarette butts everywhere. Often times trash cans are full, with no place to discard cigarette butts. A clean environment benefits the health of animals and a campus with no litter of butts.
Lastly, to promote a smoke-free campus, CTC should put posters of the risks and health problems of smoking cigarettes. Positive posters would also help students refrain from buying and smoking cigarettes. Students can save money and spend it else where that is not harmful to their health. Being a college student is stressful, smoking could be a stress reliever. But there are other alternatives than smoking. If posters were to provide different types of relieving stress, I think it would help that person think twice about smoking a cigarette.
CTC should remain a smoke-free campus. Students can enjoy nature and campus without any negative impacts on their health. It will be a campus people would enjoy attending, knowing CTC promotes having a healthy lifestyle without the need to smoke. A clean environment means clean
