It shall be the policy of Highline College, consistent with its efforts to promote wellness, fitness, and a campus environment conducive to work, study, and activities for staff, students, and the public to maintain a smoke/tobacco free indoor campus environment. Use of tobacco products is permitted on campus outside of the buildings. Receptacles for smoking materials are provided and all are urged to use them to maintain litter free campus grounds.

The college recognizes the rights of those who choose to use tobacco and as such does not prohibit the use of tobacco products; it does, however, restrict the use of these materials to areas outside college facilities and vehicles.
