ÑÇÖÞÉ«°É’s smoke- and tobacco-free initiative inspired Valeria Delgado to take the cause nationwide
In 2012, the ÑÇÖÞÉ«°É student Asian Pacific Islander Community Wellness Club (APICWC), Master of Public Health (MPH) students and students from the School of Nursing gathered to make a historic change on the university's campus. They wanted ÑÇÖÞÉ«°É to go smoke- and tobacco-free. For the next two years, collaborative efforts from many groups across campus came together to petition USÑÇÖÞÉ«°É to place a smoke- and tobacco-free referendum on the student January 2014 ballot.
