<p>My daughter and I toured Bard today, and based on this thread, I paid attention to the smoking. There was noticeably more of it than at other schools we’ve seen, but no means would I say 70% of the students were smoking. It was a somewhat rainy morning, and so not a lot were hanging around outside where they could smoke, but when the rain stopped we noticed a few passing-by kids smoking, and some outside buildings, but it did not look like a majority.</p>
<p>And it wasn’t enough to bother my strongly anti-smoking daughter. She adored Bard.</p>
