MUSC Message
Support MUSC Mission
Improve health and maximize quality of life…
“Hopefully, the message that it sends is that MUSC
is committed not to just treating illness once it
develops, but in preventing it from occurring in
the first place…”
“…this policy shift dovetails with MUSC's goal of
putting more resources into preventive care. MUSC
has a growing number of clinical programs
focused on prevention.”

Key Words for Key Moments
Promoting Compliance
If you see someone using tobacco products…
“Excuse me, you may not be aware, we are now a tobacco-free campus….meaning that
tobacco products are prohibited on MUSC property, grounds, and parking areas.
Thank you for your cooperation.”
May I use tobacco in my vehicle?
“I am sorry, but the use of tobacco products is also prohibited in personal vehicles parked
on MUSC property.”
I have to have a cigarette! My loved one is very ill or just passed away.
“I am very sorry to hear about your loved one. How can I help you through this stressful
time while still respecting the Tobacco-Free policy of this facility?”
Where am I allowed to smoke?
“Smoking and other tobacco products are not allowed anywhere on the MUSC campus.
If you need to smoke or use tobacco products, you will need to leave the campus.”
If the person using tobacco becomes hostile…
Walk away and contact security.
Key Words for Key Moments
Promoting Compliance
It takes everyone!

Mr. Bobby Dickson
Unit: Wellness Center
Where were you born? Greenville, SC
Hobbies: Reading and bowling
Something your parents told you? Don’t
do the first thing that pops into your
mind, think about it first.
One Person at your fantasy dinner? My
oldest daughter, Treu
Words of advice? Stay busy!
Ms. Stacey Stallons
Unit: Enrollment Management
Where were you born? In the small town of
Paducah in Western Kentucky. I still have the
country accent to prove it.
One person at your fantasy
dinner: Hillary Clinton. She is
a brilliant woman and one of
the most inspiring female
leaders alive. Besides, no one
can rock a pantsuit like she
can.
Hobbies: Watching independent films and
horror films with my husband, rescuing
homeless dogs (I currently own a retired racing
greyhound and a pit bull mix), and artsy stuff:
creating invitations and cards, event planning
and design, and interior design.
Something your parents told you? Always stand
tall and never be afraid to stand out.
Words of advice? Do not fear change; rather, embrace it. There is nothing more
satisfying than taking on a new place or situation and making it your own.
