We are proud to announce our commitment to a smoke-free GW. The Smoke-Free Policy is part of an ongoing effort to create a healthy environment for all individuals who live, learn, visit and work on our campuses. GW joins more than 1,000 colleges and universities nationwide that have made the decision to eliminate smoking on their campuses.
