Personally, I think it's somewhat hypocritical to ban smoking when asbestos is falling onto your bed, but I digress 
We had the opposite, at least this is how I remember it - you weren't allowed to smoke in your room, you had to go in the TV room instead. I think the theory was to keep people from smoking in small spaces where others (possibly non-smokers) had to sleep.

As far as I know, Lock Haven is the only one to ban smoking in living areas. I don't know about the other 13 schools.
In the fall of 2002, the administration put out a survey which students filled out. In that survey, they found out that 60% of students don't like smoking. So they put out this decree stating that you can't smoke in the dorm (rooms included) or on-campus apartments (we have 2 different on-campus apartment complexes, Campus Village and Evergreen Commons.)
Although, you can still smoke outside any building on campus.
