Inside Higher Ed reports that UC-San Francisco is banning sale of sugary sodas. It might be noted that San Francisco voters didn't enact a tax on such drinks when it was recently on the ballot. But Berkeley voters did pass a soda tax:

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

could bring the forbidden drinks onto campus -- after purchasing them
off campus...
