romanigypsyeyes, you may not have been one of the people who were writing about the need to “set boundaries.” I interpreted that to mean that it was incumbent upon the OP’s daughter to set the boundaries on her roommate’s activities–the presumption being that the roommate would probably want to smoke in the room.

Comment added as an edit/also cross-posted with the second paragraph of romanigypsyeyes’ post just above this: Maybe the other posters actually meant that the students needed to set boundaries for themselves, in terms of whether they would/would not report the roommate? I keep coming back to the thought that the better idea would be for lawful conduct to be the default expectation–so that it doesn’t ever come to the question of reporting or not.

People dumb enough to smoke in their rooms: Based on “reliable reports,” cough Yalies cough but I doubt that it happens only there.
