Officials at one health professions campus think it's just common sense to encourage students and employees to make healthy decisions about what they drink. So the University of California at San Francisco, where all programs are in the health professions, is becoming the first college nationally to stop the sale of sugary beverages on campus. That means no Coke or Pepsi, or plenty of other products. But the policy wouldn’t prevent diet sodas, zero-calorie drinks or 100 percent fruit juices from being sold, nor would it impact the sale of unhealthy foods on campus, and students could bring the forbidden drinks onto campus -- after purchasing them off campus.
