EXHIBIT B-I.
ASU's Tobacco-Free Campus Post-implementation Policy Evaluation
Arizona State University (ASU) implemented a tobacco-free campus policy (ACD 804: Tobacco-
Free Campus) effective August 1,2013. The policy states:
To protect the health and safety of university faculty, staff, students, and visitors on the
campuses of ASU... Smoking and the use of smokeless tobacco products are prohibited
in or on all university:
owned property
2. leased property
3. facilities
4. grounds
5. parking structures
6. university-owned vehicles
SRC conducted a pre-implementation evaluation of this policy during the spring of 2013. Since
the policy has now gone into effect, SIRC will continue this evaluation post-implementation
through collaborations with the Maricopa County Department of Public Health (MCDPH) and
ASU.
During the first 1-2 months of the evaluation, SIRC will analyze the 2013 NCHA-I I student data
that became available in July 2013, These data were collected in April 2013 and provide
information on the tobacco behaviors and tobacco-free policy attitudes among ASU students
pre-implementation. The pre-implementation evaluation report submitted to MCDPH in June
2013 will be updated to include these data.
The post-implementation evaluation will mirror the pre-implementation evaluation for
comparison purposes. However, due to the additional time allotted to the first year of the post-
implementation evaluation, additional components will be incorporated to enhance the quality
and comprehensiveness of the evaluation. These include counting tobacco-related litter on all
four ASU campuses within Maricopa County at two time points, September and April, to analyze
potential changes throughout the academic year as students, staff and other ASU patrons
become more aware of and accustomed to the new policy requirements. SIRC will also
supplement the evaluation with qualitative data. These data will be collected through focus
groups conducted with ASU populations, such as the Facilities and Maintenance staff, that may
be less likely to complete the online surveys and on may have valuable information to contribute
to the policy evaluation that is not captured through the surveys.
Return on investment estimates will be recalculated to incorporate additional and updated data
as available. These estimates will be designed to project longer term health care cost savings
associated with the implementation of the tobacco-free campus policy.
SIRC will compile all data and ROI estimates into a comprehensive report that will be submitted
to MCDPH by June 30, 2014 1 .
1 Pending discussions with the American College Health Association (ACHA), which conducts the annual National
College Health Assessment (NCHA-II), the date of the final report may need to be extended if 2014 student data are
not available until July or August 2014.

Southwest Interdisciplinary
Research Center
ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY
SIRC Obesity Project
The Southwest Interdisciplinary Research Center (SIRC) at Arizona State University is
pleased to collaborate with Maricopa County in their training efforts.
We anticipate that it will take at least two full days of work (a minimum of 16 hours) to
put together and deliver a quality presentation integrating the results of the 2012 and
2013 obesity projects/reports. We will need to pay our consultants additional fees to
participate in the presentation as well, since they made unique contributions to the
projects.
Given the anticipated effort and our hourly rate with MCDPH ($165), we could do the
presentation to the CHIP group for $2500, which is actually a little less than our total
anticipated cost.
