Commercial Tobacco Free Policy

Fort Peck Community College is committed to providing a safe and healthy environment for its employees, students and visitors. In light of findings of the U.S. Surgeon General that exposure to commercial secondhand tobacco smoke and the use of commercial tobacco products are significant health hazards, and the results of the Tobacco Use and Attitudes Survey conducted during the spring of 2009 that showed over 50% of current FPCC students use commercial tobacco, it is the intent of Fort Peck Community College to establish a 100% commercial tobacco-free environment.
