The topic of whether or not smoking should be banned on campus is still being debated at Michigan State University.
Dylan Miller, the ASMSU Vice President for Governmental Affairs, said that ASMSU has taken no stance on this issue since it is still being debated at the meetings.
Some smokers believe this ban is intrusive and inconvenient, including freshman David Allan Smith and Jay Makowski, an employee of Dining Services.
Makowski questioned what other rights of his will be taken away if this ban is successful.
Smith believes that this ban would have no impact on helping people try to quit. He still thinks people would go out of their way to have a cigarette.
But some non-smokers feel that they should ban smoking on campus, including junior Hospitality Business major Sarah Dix.
Dix believes that it is an infringement on her own rights when people smoke around her because she does not want to inhale other people's smoke.
A student at the University of Michigan, William Bodrie, thinks that the non-smoking rule makes his campus look much nicer.
The decision over the smoking ban is still being debated and will not be decided on for awhile.
