| Whereas | On July 25, 2001, the recent news report of a couple walking on campus in Dallas was attacked by an unidentified man; and |
| Whereas | To prevent dangerous situations from occuring, installing emergency phones on campus at the parking lots would be beneficial; and |
| Whereas | The phones should be posted at the (1) Northeast parking lot of S. West and Doug Russel Rd., (2) Northeast parking lot of W. Mitchell and S. West, (3) North parking lot of Bessel Ave. and (4) north parking lot of Doug Russel Rd.; and |
| Whereas | The design of the emergency phone booth would provide a direct phone call to the UTA Campus Police such as a button with an intercom; and |
| Whereas | Proper lighting should also be provided; and |
| Whereas | The phones would be useful in case a student felt unsafe, car problems, witness to a crime, etc., and students who do not have cell phones would benefit if they needed help. |
| Be It Further Resolved That | Emergency phone booths be installed in the parking lots to provide security and safety for students; and |
| Be It Further Resolved That | The phones should be posted at the Northeast parking lot of W. Mitchell and S. West (parking lot 47). |
