Remember that when in letters or not in letters, you represent your organization. Your actions and words can be taken to represent the whole.

I agree-- Tough to enforce, but it is up to the individual to act in a matter that befits the letters she assumed when she accepted her obligations of membership.
Smoking is a LEGAL activity for everyone over the age of 18 in this country and in Canada.

Unless you are breaking the law by smoking in a building that is no-smoking, or unless you are the rare college student under 18, how is doing it something that doesn't "befit your letters"?

Maybe the next thing should be no eating fatty foods in your letters. And the sickening thing is that as I typed that, I can imagine some chapters ACTUALLY MAKING A RULE LIKE THAT.
