  12. This is happening in schools, such as North Carolina, New Jersey, Washington, and Conneticut. Last April, the Food and Drug Administration for the first time proposed regulations for e-cigarettes. A lot of schools have folded e-cigarettes in their anti-tobacco policies, which usually punish students with detention, a letter home and sometimes a tobacco education class. Other schools are making students have suspenitions and require drug tests and have possession of drug paraphernalia marked on their school record. Schools are cracking down because e-cigarettes can be used for illegal substances like marijuana. E-cigarettes are affecting a lot of schools and it definitely brings a huge topic into the schools communities.
