To promote good health, reduce health risks, and maintain a safe and healthy environment, Standard College enforces a drug-free, alcohol-free, smoke-free, and tobacco-free campus. For purposes of this policy, tobacco products include cigarettes, cigars, e-cigarettes, pipes, smokeless tobacco, or other tobacco products.
Standard College’s policy prohibits smoking, tobacco use, alcohol use, and the use of illicit drugs, such as marijuana, (“prohibited products”) at all times on campus and at all clinical sites. This includes the school building, the classrooms, the laboratories, the lounges, the hallways, the restrooms, and the school parking lot, as well as at all clinical sites, and on or near the clinical site parking area.
In support of Standard College’s interest to provide a healthy environment for students, faculty, and staff at Standard College, as well as patients and administrators at the clinical sites, students may not have the smell of smoke or tobacco products, alcohol, or any illicit drug, including marijuana, on their person when attending Standard College and/or engaged at a clinical site. The purpose of this policy is to guarantee the right of all to breathe smoke-free air, and to recognize that the need to breathe smoke-free air shall have priority over the desire to smoke or use one of the prohibited products. Students violating the drug-free, alcohol-free, smoke-free, tobacco-free policy at school or at a clinical site may be subject to disciplinary action, including termination from the program.
