IRVINE – UC Irvine will continue to allow the use of electronic cigarettes on campus even as the university begins enforcing a smoke-free environment today, a policy that contradicts a University of California edict to ban the nicotine-vapor product.
UCI was ordered by UC's central office in Oakland to rid its campus of tobacco products and e-cigarettes by New Year's Day. But unlike the nine other UC campuses that crafted policies banning all nicotine items, UCI's new policy will let students and staff keep using e-cigarettes and chewing tobacco.
The university argues the health effects of e-cigarettes aren't fully understood.
