Passed in General Body

Result:

34-0-1

Remarks:

PENDING

Whereas:

All UT Arlington student ID cards used to display the emergency and non-emergency police phone numbers on the back of the card; and

Whereas:

Some of the new student ID cards do not display these phone numbers; and

Whereas:

Many students do not know that the non-emergency phone number is the appropriate number to call for a nightime security escort; and

Whereas:

The on-campus Health Center has recently changed from a walk-in system to an appointment only system; and

Whereas:

Having the phone number to the Health Center displayed on student ID cards would assist students in conveniently making appointments

Be It Therefore Resolved That:

All UT Arlington student ID cards be disigned in such a way that, on either the front or back of the card, helpful phone numbers be displayed such as the emergency police number, the non-emergency police number, the campus security escort number, and the Health Center number.
