Kuhn, a smoker, said the |k>1ic\
has had a positive effect on him. He
said he is smoking fewer cigarettes
since the policy went into effect.
“I used to smoke in my office he
said. “Now I only smoke (in the of
fice) after the w hole office closes, and
I'm staying late.”
lie said the policy allows him to
smoke in his individual office as long
as he has a charcoal I liter unit to suek
in the smoke.
Ralph Vigil, a history professor,
said he spent $100 on a new air filler
for his office and placed signs that say
“smoking is permitted” so he could
smoke in it.
Paul Podany, a junior electrical
engineering major, said he smoked
one day while he walked through the
union.
“But 1 haven’t done any tiling devi
ant yet,” he said.
Podany also said he is “sick of
everyone bitching” about the smok
ing policy.
He said he doesn’t think the policy
has caused people to adjust their
schedules so they can have a ciga
rette.
Some think smokers are becoming
a new American minority.
“I think the philosophy has
changed,” Kuhn said. “We used to be
concerned with smoker’s rights and
now the non-smoker has priority if his
rights are violated.”
“It’s (no-smoking policy) a sense
less middle-class fad that has little
rationality,” Vigil said.
“Americans have attempted to
make people like me a pariah, as il
I’m rather stupid,” he said.
Not smoking “allegedly creates
better health,” Vigil said, but he
thinks the American public should
focus on issues such as chemical
dumps, nuclear war and the pesticides
farmers use on food.
“It’s ridiculous,” he said. “The
world’s going up by population or
nuclear war and we’re concerned
with smoking.
“This shows that there are more
important things to worry about than
whether people smoke,” he said.
Vigil also said he would sympa
thize with people if they smoked
where they shouldn’t

ing, he said, smokers don’t know
where to put out their cigarettes and
“ground them out on the floor.”
The only person Kuhn has had to
askloputoutacigarettewasoncothis
friends, he said.
Usually, he said, strangers don’t
know about the smoking policy. On
football Saturdays, Kuhn said, he secs
many people with lit cigarettes inside
the union. He said that on those days,
however, the crowd is usually too
large for him to gel to the person in
time.
