According to an email that was sent to students and staff, smoking is prohibited on all University of Pretoria campuses and facilities until the ban on cigarette ends. Disciplinary action will be handed down to anyone seen smoking on campus.
Under Level 3 regulations the sale of cigarettes are still prohibited and the Department of Education says this should be the case on education campuses as well.
“As we open the University’s campuses and residences for some students and staff to return, it is important to take note of the precautions and regulations that have been put in place in the interest of your health and well-being,” said University of Pretoria spokesperson Rikus Delport.
