Oh get over it. Sure you have a right to smoke, but I have a right to breathe clean air. You put smokers on the same level as people of particular races or religions or homosexuals. No one is discriminating against smokers. I don't want to have to walk into a cloud of smoke when entering or exiting buildings at NYU or period for that matter. You pay $11,720 to smoke wherever you want, well I pay the same to NOT have an asthma attack everytime I go near the stoop ( I lived in Weinstein when I was a freshman). Just suck it up and walk 15 feet away from entrances. Seriously, you act like NYU is killing you when in fact, you actions actually could kill someone else. Smokers in general have no regard for others' comforts. Have you ever been burned on the hand or in the eye by a rogue cigarette? Nope? Well, I have and buddy it's not fun. So in conclusion I say this, oh-entitled-Frosh, move away from the entrances and if that's not good enough, move off campus. Trust me, you can find a decent apartment in which you can light up to your little heart's desire for less than $11,720.
