UAA – Smoke-Free Day »
Yesenia Camarena and Valeria Delgado, student leaders for the smoke-free campus movement at UAA, stand in front of a sign allowing smoking outside campus buildings. UAA students approved a smoke-free campus in the April 2014 USUAA election. Now students are working to win support from staff and faculty. If the policy is implemented, it will allow a year for educating affected audiences. The students hope to see it in place by 2015. (Photo by Ted Kincaid/University of Alaska Anchorage)
