Good move. Illegal is illegal.

It's illegal for a minor to BUY tobacco. How many states is it illegal for a minor to SMOKE tobacco?
I'm not saying that smoking is good for them. I'm saying that this has gotten WAY out of hand and that, IMO, students that want to do extracurricular activities shouldn't be held to an extra higher standard.
Also that checking for nicotine is going WAY overboard considering that tobacco is a legal commodity that does not impair a persons judgement.

With all due respect, the person who decides to smoke has impaired judgment.
