Smoke-Free Countdown Continues
UALR is now five months away from becoming a smoke-free campus. On Aug. 16, 2009, the new smoke-free policy will apply to all locations of the University, including the main campus, the Bowen School of Law, and the Benton Center.
Smokers may be aware that a 56-cent-a-package increase in cigarette taxes took effect this month in Arkansas. To save money and kick the habit, contact the Office of Health Services at 569.3188. Smoking cessation, medical counseling, and health classes are available. Online classes are also now being offered.
