Campus Smoking Policy

Baruch College is a non-smoking institution except in designated locations. If you have any questions about where you may go to smoke, check with a public safety officer for the location of the nearest smoking designated areas.

• Smoking is not allowed inside any building on campus, including entry canopies.
• No smoking is permitted within 20 feet of any building door, window, or air intake.
• Smoking is limited to outdoor designated smoking areas. These areas are identified with signage. The smoking areas are located near the center of the southside and at the northeast side of the Vertical Campus and the southeast corner of the library.
• The campus community is responsible for notifying guests of the smoking policy and ensuring that they abide by the policy.

This policy protects the rights of non-smokers to enjoy a smoke-free environment. It relies on the cooperation of the entire college community, both smokers and non-smokers. It is the responsibility of all members of our College community to observe the smoking policy and to direct those who choose to smoke to do so only in the designated smoking areas.
