November 19, 2009 - Lexington, Kentucky, USA - A cigarette slowly burned after it had been taped to the mouth of a statue of the University of Kentucky's first president, JAMES PATTERSON, as students have a "smoke-out" to protest the University's tobacco ban on campus which began today. About a hundred student smokers and non-smokers gathered to protest the campus-wide tobacco ban UK implemented Thursday by continuously using tobacco products in front of Patterson Office Tower and on the Student Center patio. The ban prohibits the use of cigarettes, pipes, cigars and chewing tobacco, and extends to all properties owned by the university in Fayette County. (Credit image: © David Stephenson/ZUMA Press)
