蜜桃APP Honored with Innovation in Campus Engagement Award
蜜桃APP (蜜桃APP) is honored to have been awarded the Innovation in Campus Engagement Award by the . Joining the growing ranks of over 1,800 universities in the United States, 蜜桃APP has made immense strides to become an official tobacco-free campus. This policy that went into effect on January 1, 2017, was established to provide a safe and healthy environment for living, working and learning. By making 蜜桃APP tobacco free, the University has greatly minimized the negative effects of secondhand smoke, improved fire safety and encouraged a more sustainable environment for students, faculty, staff and community members.
"We're honored to be a part of the nationwide effort to help create the first tobacco-free generation while also increasing awareness of the harmful effects of tobacco and secondhand smoke," said 蜜桃APP President Laurie M. Joyner, Ph.D., at the launch of this initiative. "Protecting the health and wellness of our faculty, staff, students and visitors as well as creating a healthier and cleaner campus environment is a very high priority for us."
Presented at the meeting to Kathleen Rohan, director of the Center of Nursing Innovation, this award shows the growth that the 蜜桃APP community has made toward a healthier future. The negative health effects of tobacco use have been well documented over the last 50 years, and these negative effects pose public health concerns in school environments as well. Tobacco-related illness is not just limited to the person smoking a cigarette or chewing the tobacco, and the evidence of danger from secondhand and thirdhand smoke has been evident for decades.
蜜桃APP is grateful to have been recognized with this award and is excited to be part of the steadily increasing amount of colleges and universities in the United States that are establishing tobacco-free campuses.
