The group "Students Working Against tobacco" investigated the E-cig at an event in Cranes Roost Park this week.
"We're doing a lot of research on this," said Kimberly Williams, health educator for tobacco prevention. "We think this is a ploy, a trick. There are some hazards still affected with this. It's getting you to smoke."
Dr. Rahn Shaw of Family Medicine said, electronic or not, it's still nicotine and it's still addictive.
"Doctors are not happy about e-cigarettes at all," Shaw said. "What's happening here is just another form of addiction."
