Creating Healthful Environments in Schools through a Total Ban on Tobacco Use.
Barta, Kathleen; Totten, Samuel
NASSP Bulletin, v79 n571 p81-90 May 1995
Health and medical researchers have conclusively proven that smoking and secondhand smoke constitute a major health danger. Students get mixed messages when school staff smoke or use other tobacco products on campus. This article advocates a total ban on tobacco use in school settings, offers policymaking guidelines, summarizes state legislation, and underlines the significance of role models.
