Furthering the Surgeon General’s Call to Action

Indoor Tan-Free College Campuses New initiative: Indoor Tan-Free College Campuses Supports and celebrates colleges and universities that prohibit indoor tanning practices within their campus. This award will create opportunities to:  Follow through with two of the major goals of the Surgeon General’s Report - Goal 3: Promote Policies that Advance the National Goal of Preventing Skin Cancer and Goal 4: Reduce Harms from Indoor tanning;  Recognize colleges and universities that make skin cancer prevention in college-aged students a priority on campus; and  Demonstrate the continued commitment of the Office of the Surgeon General to skin cancer prevention within the United States.

Requirements – Colleges and universities will voluntarily need to demonstrate their commitment by adopting and implementing an indoor tanning-free policy on their campus. – The initiative will fall directly under Strategy 4C of the Call to Action to Prevent Skin cancer: “Support organizational policies that discourage indoor tanning by adolescents and young adults”. – Tan-free college campuses will thus serve as role models of institutions and communities that demonstrate a commitment to bringing the words of this Call to Action to life.

Eligibility Criteria The universities recognized by this Surgeon General award will have demonstrated a commitment to skin cancer prevention and the ongoing health of their students by meeting the following requirements: – The nominated university must not have indoor tanning salons on campus or in college buildings (gyms, student centers, dormitories etc.). – The nominated university must not have indoor tanning salons accessible in off-campus housing that is either supported or promoted by the college – The nominated university must not allow students to use cash cards to pay for indoor tanning sessions. – The nominated university must provide an educational program focusing on the risks of UV exposure (through sunlight and indoor tanning), and skin cancer prevention practices. – The nominated university must have an established policy that demonstrates a current and ongoing commitment to disallowing an indoor tanning presence on campus or in sponsored off-campus housing.
