The first step toward becoming tobacco-free or supporting someone else in quitting is to learn about resources that can help throughout the process.
Approximately two-thirds of Cornell students who use tobacco have thought about quitting. Some have tried to quit “cold turkey” and been successful, but others have found that a combination of medical assistance and the right cessation tools were helpful.
Gannett has plenty of tools that can help you, or a friend, leave tobacco behind. Our slogan, Turn someday into today! (pdf), is meant to encourage members of the Cornell community to take advantage of the tobacco cessation services offered at Gannett.
