Des Moines Area Community College
Tobacco-Free Campus

Des Moines Area Community College (DMACC) is committed to providing a safe and healthy environment for its employees, students and visitors.  In light of the Iowa Legislature’s recent passage of The Smoke-Free Air Act (H.F. 2212) and findings of the U.S. Surgeon General that use of tobacco is a contributing factor to significant health hazards; it is the intent of the DMACC Board to establish a tobacco-free environment. 

Effective July 1, 2008, use of tobacco products will not be allowed on any college property or in any college facility; this includes all buildings, grounds, sidewalks, parking lots, vehicles, and streets within the campus proper. DMACC will display notice of its tobacco-free policy at all college locations.
