On Wednesday afternoon, Trevor Nelson, a junior at the University of Oklahoma, stubbed out a cigarette and threw it in a trash can before heading to class.

Nelson said he knows about the tobacco ban that will take effect later this year. And he knows exactly what he plans to do about it.

“I will completely ignore the ban,” he said.

During Monday's State of the State address, Gov. Mary Fallin announced she had signed an executive order placing a ban on tobacco use on all state-owned and state-leased property. That ban takes effect July 1.
