<p>Then don’t put the smoking areas there.</p>
<p>Put the smoking areas on the extreme ends of campus; don’t ban smoking entirely. Why do kids who pay 10k plus to live in the bubble have to walk off campus at midnight, 2 am, whenever, to smoke a cigarette? You know everyone’s probably going to go by Audubon blvd first, because it’s actually quite nice and not sketchy. But then the wealthy families won’t like that.</p>
<p>Where’s everyone going to go? Claiborne? Loyola? In the neighborhoods surrounding Tulane?</p>
<p>I don’t think it’s going to be a very effective plan. Most people probably won’t even acknowledge it to be honest, because of how ridiculous it is. I wouldn’t walk all the way into a residential neighborhood to light a cigarette. I’d be much more inclined to walk to some remote part of campus itself, however, knowing that the Tulane bubble is protecting me.</p>
<p>I think they should, one, actually enforce the designated smoking areas. No one actually does, which I think is a problem. And then, two, get rid of the designated areas in the middle of campus (the one by the willow PJs, the one by Bruff, the one in-between Butler and Mayer, etc.). Finally, only have designated smoking areas in places like behind the parking garage, or in front of Newcomb, or maybe behind monroe/the law school. These are areas no one really travels through that much, especially at night, leaving the bars…</p>
