On April 2, 2008, much of the west end of the UW campus became smoke-free. Of course, smoking has been prohibited in buildings for a long time but the new policy includes outside areas as well.
The no smoking rule was initiated by the UW Hospital and Clinics and applies
to all of their facilities including the Clinical Science Center, America
n
Family Children’s Hospital, Clinics, and all UW Medical Foundation and Hospital
and clinics administrative locations.
The ban also applies to all of the buildings surrounding the Health Sciences Campus: the Wisconsin Institute for Medical Research (WIMR), the Health Sciences Learning Center (HSLC), Rennebohm Hall of Pharmacy, and the Waisman Center. Parking lots and ramps in the area are also included in the smoke free policy.
