This article from NC State’s Technician strikes me as funny in a human-comedy vein:
Following the North Carolina General Assembly legislation to prohibit smoking in all state buildings, the smoking regulation policy for University Facilities states, as of Jan. 1, smokers must be at least 25 feet away from a building’s public entrances and air intakes.
Tobacco products will also be discontinued from sale at the campus bookstores.
Despite the ban on smoking in all state buildings, [assistant professor of crop science Loren] Fisher said the prohibitions are not taking effect on tobacco production or the curriculum dealing with tobacco at the University. … Fisher also said the tobacco regulations will not change what is taught in the tobacco production courses.
