Editor,
I was a student at the Gallup branch of UNM. However, I still read the Daily Lobo.
I just want to say that I think the Albuquerque campus should be smoke-free. I am not a smoker, and the smell of secondhand smoke is really annoying. UNM should not just be a drug-free campus, but smoke-free as well, for the good of all the students. All of us who do not smoke should not be exposed to smoke from other people. Besides, I don't like my clothes smelling like smoke when I don't smoke.
Smokers should go to their cars or wait until they get off campus to smoke. They can even chew some gum or something, but they shouldn't make us inhale that nasty smoke. Smokers also need to think about all those people who have asthma and other respiratory problems. Those people should definitely not have to put up with smokers. After all, their health can be at risk because of this.
