Smoking Policy

In the interest of employee health and the general welfare of students and the public, the Desert Community College District shall be considered a smoke-free environment. Smoking of any form, including vaping, of tobacco or non-tobacco products is prohibited anywhere on campus (inside any college facility; in any vehicle owned, operated, leased, or chartered by the District; in all established eating areas; and in the seating areas of all outdoor athletic facilities owned, operated, or leased by the District). Smoking may be permitted for approved theatrical rehearsals and performances where smoking is determined to be an integral part of the rehearsal or performance.
