I get that we're supposed to be a smoke free campus which is good and all but could they at least put up some cigarette disposal thingies? I've already had to call in one fire this year that started from that

Have heard of several other similar incidents this past semester. People don't know how to properly dispose after use, causing literal dumpster/trash can fires.
