VOLUME 119, NUMBER 2 5 SERVING SAN JOSE STATE UNIVERSITY SINCE 1934 SPA !IAN DAILY WWW.THESPARTANDAILY.COM THURSDAY, OCTOBER 3, 2002 Anti-smoking Family of Stayner victims speak group fueled by two students
By Melinda Latham Daily Staff Writer The campus representatives of COUGH are determined to make this campus smoke-free. All two of them. Karis Bituin, a senior occupational therapy major, and Dennis Acha, a graduate student in public health, are the San Jose State University representatives of the anti- smolcing organization COUGH, which stands for Campuses Organized and United for Good Health. The organization was created in April during a meeting of eight representatives of eight CSU campuses. Bituin said there were three goals of the organization. The first goal, to delegate smoking policy to the CSU presidents, was acheived last July when the CSU trustees gave presidents authority to outline smoking policies. The other two goals, Bituin said, are to create a rule that requires smokers to stay outside of a 20-foot radius frotn any building and to eventually create a smoke-free cam- pus. Bituin, also a peer educator at the Peer Health Education Program, said she would hope to see more peo- ple get involved. "We're really glad that this thing has been noticed," she said. Acha, the other member of COUGH, works for thc American Lung Association and directs a college project called "Mind the Gap," which informs college students about the dangers of smoking. He explained why the group is demanding a 20-foot radius, which is larger than the current 15-foot radius thc university policy outlines. "Research shows that 20 feet is the safest distance, min- imum," Acha said. However, Acha said the current policy is not being enforced. SJSU president Robert Caret acknowledged the situation and said that the University Police Department is occupied with other tasks. "The big problem is not the policy but enforcing it," Caret said.
