may appear to be coercive, and are prohibited. Even when no coercion is present, such relationships
create an appearance of impropriety and favoritism, which can impair the academic experience of
all students in that class. It is; therefore, improper conduct and prohibited for a faculty member to
engage in a romantic or sexual relationship with a student then enrolled in the faculty member’s class.
Smoking Policy
The university has adopted a “no smoking” policy in accordance with the Florida Clean Indoor Air
Act, and evidence that indicates that passive smoking, i.e., involuntary inhalation of pollutants
in the air produced by the smoking of others, is potentially harmful to nonsmokers in the closed
environment of our buildings.
Accordingly, it is determined that there is no smoking in any Nova Southeastern University
classroom / administrative facility.
Nova Southeastern University has adopted a smoking restriction policy to promote healthy lifestyles
and ensure clean air around campus buildings, while greatly reducing exposure to second-hand
smoke. A “Healthy Sharks” initiative will prohibit smoking everywhere on campus except at
designated smoking sites located at least 50 feet from buildings. Smoking will be prohibited in all
other areas of NSU campuses and student educational centers throughout Florida.
To locate the smoking sites on Nova Southeastern University campuses, log into the NSU Web site
at www.nova.edu.
