You will notice “No Smoking” signs posted in these areas across our UM campuses to help keep our spaces comfortable and safe for everyone.

Please remember to dispose of cigarette butts in designated receptacles only, rather than in regular waste or recycling bins, and avoid littering them on the grounds. Misplaced cigarette butts can pose a fire risk, potentially damaging campus property and causing personal injury.

For those seeking assistance with smoking cessation, please visit your family doctor or pharmacy for a free consultation. Additional Health and Wellness Resources are also available for students and employees through the University’s websites. Thank you for helping to keep our campus clean and safe for all!
