Question 1: How do you feel about enforcement of the smoking ban on campus?
"I think it's kind of pointless. As long as people aren't smoking in building it shouldn't matter where they smoke; they are going to do it regardless."

Question 2: Do you smoke?  If yes, why? If no, why? How long have you been smoking?
“No I am not a smoker, but most of my friends are and my parents are smokers also."

Question 3: How do you feel the smoking ban affects the campus?
"I guess it is positive in that the ban gets people to smoke less. Everyone in college is 18+ pretty much. Let them make their own decisions."

Question 4: Do you think the school does a good job at enforcing the ban?
"I have never seen anyone get in trouble for smoking on campus. I think since Texas State has issued the ban that people should respect it, but they shouldn't get a citation if caught smoking. Ticketing smokers is way too excessive; they spend enough on the cigarettes already."
