What Is Quit and Win?

Quit & Win is a smoking cessation program coordinated by Boynton Health Service and endorsed by Employee Benefits. (Funding for this program comes from a non-University source.)

Quit & Win has been a success with students, and now it¹s being offered exclusively to staff and faculty! The Quit & Win contest is a unique opportunity for University of Minnesota, Duluth staff and faculty who are current cigarette smokers to become smoke-free, while at the same time entering a contest for a chance to win outstanding prizes!!
