Description
Vaping refers to the inhale and exhale of water vapor
through a vaporizer or electronic cigarette. It has
become increasingly popular within the last 5 years
and is common indoors and outdoors. Florida Atlantic
University (FAU) protects people from the health
hazards of secondhand tobacco smoke by having implemented a no tobacco policy. Due to the undiscovered
health risks caused by vaping and its no tobacco
nature, it is unclear whether or not FAU should ban
vaping in their policy. In order to gauge how college
students, faculty, and staff feel about vaping, I will be
conducting a university wide survey that will show 1)
previous knowledge of vaping 2) stigma associated
with vaping and 3) policies that should be implemented
concerning indoor vaping. This will be done by
creating a pilot first. The results from the survey could
be used to influence FAU policy.
