A student-driven resolution aims to make the University of South Dakota campus smoke-free.

The Student Government Association passed the resolution late last year, and it now is in the hands of the University Executive Committee.

Smoking is not allowed within 25 feet of a building entrance on the Vermillion campus, but Student Government Association President Collin Michels tells KELO-TV that the policy has proven difficult to enforce. He hopes a campus smoking ban can be put in place by the fall semester.
