MCC Smoking Policy

In order to be respectful of everyone's right to a smoke-free environment, MCC has updated the smoking policy on campus. The use of tobacco products are prohibited in all MCC buildings and within 30 feet of all building entrances.

The use of tobacco products is only permitted at designated smoking areas on the MCC grounds. Designated smoking areas are no closer than 30 feet to building entrances and will be identified and clearly marked as smoking areas as soon as possible. To see a campus map showing the designated smoking areas, click here. Receptacles for extinguishing smoking materials will be placed in appropriate locations on campus.

Non-smoking signs and notices will be updated at each entrance to campus buildings. The smoking policy applies to all employees, students, independent contractors, and visitors.

MCC's administration asks for your cooperation in abiding by the tobacco policy and reminding others to use the designated smoking areas at all times. There are some areas where even the previous policy forced people to walk through very smoky conditions, perhaps most notably the Learning Technology Center. This policy is intended to allow everyone the opportunity to enter all MCC facilities without encountering a smoke-filled environment. The only way this policy can be effective is if all of us ask individuals not abiding by the policy to please show the proper courtesy to others.

Thank you for your assistance. Please remember to be mindful of everyone's right to a smoke-free environment.
