“Most college students view smoking as
a social activity that they will stop after college,” she said.
“However, statistics show that most people don’t stop after college.
The longer that someone smokes, the harder it will be to stop.”
Participants receive free materials and a quit pack. Sessions also
will be offered at 5 p.m. October 4, 11, 18, and 25; and at noon
November 7, 14, 21, and 28.
Walden-Schwake said she is working with the employee wellness
committee to schedule a Cooper Clayton Start to Stop class for
University employees. Look for future announcements in University
Notes.
To sign up for the class, call the Recreation and Fitness Center at
812/461-5268. For more information about the class, call
Walden-Schwake at
